16th Saint-Tropez National Table Tennis Tournament

For the past 15 years, the UST Table Tennis Club has organized a national tournament in the middle of January... This year, it's Saturday January 17 and Sunday January 18, 2026.

The offer is evolving with an increased level of play, notably with the integration of an All Star table made up of international class players... And by leverage effect, the other tables have attracted better level players, notably in the all series table...

At present, the following players have been announced: Can Akkuzu (18th French), Stéphane Ouaiche (36th F, 2025 titleholder), Alexandre Robinot (23rd F, 2025 finalist and 2024 winner), Ylane Batix (94th World), Sohan Gilles (85th F), Guillaume Alcayde (113th F), Antoine Doyen (122nd F), etc...
All in all, the matches will be of a very high standard, which should attract a large number of spectators... Access to the Moulin Blanc complex remains free for all!

We've limited the number of places we can offer to keep the quality of play comfortable for players and organizers alike. Around 150 players will be able to register!
That's around 500 people including accompanying adults...
The finals of the excellence tables (Gentlemen's all-series, numbered table -300 French) with prize-giving will take place from 7.30pm on Saturday January 17, 2026 at the Moulin Blanc sports hall. The all-series table starts at 11 a.m...
On Sunday, other tables of all levels and, for an hour, the pro players will give an exhibition in the form of All Stars Speed Ping! Spectacle guaranteed! at 3.30pm...

On Sunday, other tables of all levels and, for an hour, the pro players will give an exhibition in the form of All Stars Speed Ping! Spectacle guaranteed! at 3.30pm...

This year, the tables have been revised to attract higher-level players. The reorganization of the tables, particularly on Saturday, means that players ranked between 14 and 18 will be able to play 3 tables in one day, which means that the tournament will offer a higher quality of play and a great show.
To ensure that the matches run smoothly and appeal to the public, the number of players has been reduced.
