Defending champions Nigeria and Togo are preparing to retain their titles at the 2025 ITTF Africa West Regional Championships in Lagos from July 16 to 19.
The event will take place at the Molade Okoya-Thomas Hall, located within the Teslim Balogun Stadium complex in Lagos.
Nigeria, the region’s most decorated team, will defend the women’s team title it successfully retained in Lomé last year.
This confirmation was made in a statement on Sunday by International Table Tennis Africa (ITTF Africa).
Togo will pursue back-to-back wins in the men’s team event, after a thrilling 3-2 victory over Nigeria in the 2024 final.
That 2024 triumph came on home soil, spurred by strong local support from enthusiastic fans.
This year, Togo faces tough opposition from Nigeria and other countries including Benin Republic, Ghana, and Côte d’Ivoire.
