With the spread of COVID-19 across different parts of the world, the 2020 World Veteran Championships, originally scheduled for 8-14 June in Bordeaux, France, have been postponed.

The local organising committee has been working closely with the Fédération Française de Tennis de Table (FFTT) and Swaythling Club International (SCI) in recent weeks.

The decision to postpone the event was made with the health and safety of players, officials and fans as the top priority.

The local organising committee will advise on a new date in due course.
