NSTCm flipbook

The National Youth Table Tennis Centre (NSTCm) was officially established in 2019 and is based in Nitra, just an hour's drive (80 km) from Bratislava. This location allows close cooperation with the NSTC adult training centre of the Slovak national team.

The NSTCm is responsible for creating the best possible conditions for athletes to receive year-round preparation and training. This applies to all youth categories, especially those

representing Slovak Republic at international level. The Sports High School within the United School Slančíkova 2 in Nitra provides the best modern training conditions. These facilites allow young athletes to pursue a dual career, enabling them to develop their sporting and academic abilities simultaneously.

A child does not need to transfer to a school in Nitra to enrol in NSTCm.

The training group at NSTCm is not limited to the aforementioned players. National team members who are not part of NSTCm are frequently invited to one- to two-week training camps each month.

Additionally, other sparring partners such as Thomas Keinath (deaflympic champion) and Monika Uríková (former slovak national team player), regularly participate in training sessions.

National team coaches also invite young talents with potential for future success. However, the fact that YOU have not been invited does not mean that you cannot reach out to us if you are interested in collaboration.

“Success isn’t about talent, but the drive to improve oneself.”
