Dear colleagues,


The "WTT Youth Contender Bangkok" will be held in Bangkok, Thailand, at Fashion Island, Ramindra on September 12-18, 2022. The Thailand Table Tennis Association would like to invite two or three International umpires (IU) to officiate the event.


It is an open invitation, therefore not all submissions may be accepted. Only online nominations submitted by bona fide National Associations will be considered; preference will be given to young umpires.


Full hospitality (excluding air tickets) will be provided in a twin room from dinner on 11 September to breakfast on 19 September.


All invited umpires must organize their own transport to the region as well as travel and medical insurance. In addition, all invited umpires are responsible for early arrival and late departure. Local transport will be provided from and to Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK).


Umpires are required to make their own arrangements for pre-departure COVID-19 test(s).
