FIFTA Congress: 2027 European Championship to Be Held in Istanbul

The congress of the International Football Tennis Federation (FIFTA) was held with a meeting attended by representatives of the countries that took part in the World Championship. The congress was chaired by Şevket Songur, President of FIFTA and President of the TRNC Football Tennis Federation. The agenda covered the international development of the sport, the tournament calendar for the coming years, and the spread of the federation around the world.

According to the decisions taken, the 2027 European Championship will be played in Istanbul. The 2028 World Championship will be held in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. It was also decided that the 2027 FIFTA congress will be held in Slovakia in April.

One of the congress's key decisions was the establishment of sub-federations on five continents within FIFTA. The aim is to develop organization in Asia, Europe, Africa, the Americas and Oceania. With this structure, the goal is to strengthen continental coordination and introduce new countries to football tennis.

It was also decided that international championships will be held every year. This is intended to allow countries to meet at regular intervals and give athletes a continuous competitive environment.

In addition, a new tournament called the FIFTA CUP will be organized. The event is planned for June or July, and teams that have won their own national leagues or national competitions will take part.
