Bay Area Table Tennis Federation

It’s great to see five U.S. players heading overseas for the 2026–27 season, gaining experience in some of Europe’s strongest table tennis leagues.

That’s an impressive mix of destinations—Austria, Germany, and Croatia. In particular, Kanak Jha’s move to Borussia Düsseldorf is a major opportunity, while Nandan Naresh and Sid Naresh continuing their European league careers should be excellent for their development.

Good luck to all five! ❤️🔥👏

Kanak Jha → Borussia Düsseldorf (Germany), teaming up with Fan Zhendong
Nandan Naresh → TV Refrath (Germany)

Kanak did very well. Fang Bo has recovered a lot, but not enough to beat Kanak.
