Welcoming a globally leading brand like Butterfly as a title sponsor is a landmark event for Indian table tennis. Furthermore, the fact that a globally highly-regarded Japanese brand places its trust in UTT is clear proof that India is increasing its presence in the table tennis world. Since our inception, we have aimed to build a robust and sustainable ecosystem for the sport of table tennis, going beyond just being a league. This partnership is a massive step toward realizing that vision.
Moving forward, we will co-shape the future of Indian table tennis by providing players access to world-class facilities and equipment, bringing one of the most trusted brands in the table tennis world closer to home, and building a sustainable foundation to nurture the next generation of talent.

It is a great honor to take this new step as a title sponsor alongside UTT, which drives the development of Indian table tennis, and to be able to support its journey over the long term. Our company desires to be a presence that not only provides equipment but also creates new encounters through table tennis, supporting everyone involved in the sport. Through this partnership, we hope to deliver the appeal of table tennis to more people and bring further value and expansion to the Indian table tennis community.

UTT has played a crucial role in the development of the Indian table tennis world. It has continuously worked to strengthen the competitive foundation by supporting nine domestic academies and over 400 young players, serving as the title sponsor for the Table Tennis Federation of India's (TTFI) National Championships and ranking tournaments, and launching the Table Tennis Super League (TTSL) aimed at improving competitive skills at the state level.
