About us

GTK Baltais – a club with character

Our goal is to make table tennis accessible, exciting and professional for everyone – from kids to experienced athletes.

Our story

GTK Baltais was created as a place where table tennis is not just a sport but the heart of a community. Over the years we have grown from a small group of enthusiasts into an established club with regular training, tournaments and a club culture of our own.

We believe that a quality training process, a supportive environment and healthy competition help achieve both sporting and personal goals.

  • Respect for every player – regardless of level
  • Fair play and respect for the opponent
  • Continuous growth and learning
  • A friendly, open environment for newcomers
