Effeltrich is fighting for the autumn championship against Kaiserslautern!
On Sunday, October 26th, 2025, the DJK/SpVgg Effeltrich table tennis men will take to the field to play against TSG Kaiserslautern, who have not yet lost a point. This exciting duel opens at 1 p.m. in the GambleDome, a location that has already served as the setting for many exciting encounters. The performances so far speak for themselves: Effeltrich has won the first three games of the season comfortably and would like to continue this trend.
The situation couldn't be more exciting. Effeltrich and Kaiserslautern are considered top championship candidates, and a win for the guests would practically secure them the fall championship. The game is considered one of the biggest games in Effeltrich's club history. Here young talent meets experienced veterans. In the front pair cross, the young players Kenyu Hiratsuka and Elias Hardmeier play against the former national players Torben Wosik and Wang Xi, who play for Kaiserslautern. In positions 3 and 4, Hannes Hörmann and Luis Kraus face off against the Kaiserslautern team with Akito Itagaki and Felix Köhler. The latter know each other very well from their youth, so the fans can hope for exciting rallies.
