Final Table Tennis Student Sports Games 2026
It seems that Aurora
Hrovatin’s classmates already knew in advance about
their friend’s new success (4th place) ... The management of the NTK Škofije club and her coaches
were aware of her abilities, but we did not expect such maturity in
her game, patience, and perfect tactics. Incredible!
At the same time, we would all like to thank the headmistress of primary school "dr. Aleš Bebler", Hrvatini Aleksadra Pobega, who made it possible for the supporters to attend, as well as the organizer and chaperone Romina Umer.
Top-8 U-13, Luče 24.5.2026
An old proverb says: "Where the bull goes, the rope follows" — and our Aurora Hrovatin clearly lives by it. Day by day she is improving, gradually gaining competitive experience, while also achieving one success after another.
This Sunday she had to wake up quite early, as she had over two hours of travel ahead to the town of Luče, where the NTZS Top-8 U-13 tournament (boys and girls under 13) was scheduled. Aurora competed in Group C (ranked 17–24), where she bravely faced more experienced opponents. Despite some initial nerves, which she quickly overcame, she started well and maintained solid play throughout all 7 matches. With a positive record (4 wins, 3 losses), she finished 4th in her group of eight, which places her 20th overall in the national rankings.
TT School 2026 – conclusion
The conclusion of the NT School for the
2025/26 season was a truly memorable experience – cheerful and
enthusiastic children aged between eight and twelve, full of
positive energy and, above all, a strong desire to
win.
All of them showed their progress in the
game, while also demonstrating respect for their opponents (fair
play). And it seemed that the parents in attendance also enjoyed
the cheerful atmosphere.

BrainSpin Training
Preparations to support patients with Parkinson’s disease – the European BrainSpin project – are in full swing. Organized by Alma Mater University, a 3-day workshop (May 5–7, 2026) was held in Ljubljana to train table tennis coaches to work with patients with Parkinson’s disease. The project leader, Prof. Dr. Uroš Marušič, excellently connected top-level lectures delivered by eminent specialists. In a very relaxed atmosphere, we gained a wealth of knowledge and practical advice, all aimed at providing the best possible support to patients with Parkinson’s disease.
Success of the youth team
Aurora Hrovatin - winner of the regional primary school competition (Gorenjska, Postojna, Nova Gorica, Koper), grades 5–9, in Gorizia on May 6, 2026.
After a slightly slow start (nerves, pressure – or perhaps too much eagerness), she regrouped and began to show the level of play seen in training. With solid serves and quite good returns, she gradually took full control of the match. After her first win (2:1), she relaxed and defeated all the following opponents 2:0, except for the last one (2:1), when she already knew she had qualified for the next stage.
Also in Italy
Our members are also successful in Italy. Our member Alois Brandmayr achieved an excellent result at the Italian Veterans Championship.
Together with Delović Predrag, they won 3rd place in the 75 to 80 age category.

something.Regional School Table Tennis Competition 2016
From the Pannonian to the Adriatic Sea
Pucon's "deers" Benkovič Robi, Železen Ervin, Vratarič Karel, Zadravec Matej, Uzelac Zdenko and Ficko Jože came to the Coast on 2.4.2011, where they played a friendly match with NTK Škofije players (Iacono Giovanni, Liubicich Gino, Derganz Diego, Dapreto Stefano, Marušič Marjan, Žigon Goran, Omerzelj Marjan and Kramer Jure). A great meeting with lots of good points, but above all lots of good humour and fun.
