Table Tennis England and Cloudathlete partnership will create bright digital future

September 24, 2025 | Paul Stimpson

Table Tennis England is teaming up with Cloudathlete to transform our members†experience and launch the sport into a bright digital future.

Following a thorough tender process, Sheffield-based Cloudathlete has been appointed as partner for our membership platform and wider digital services.

The Cloudathlete platform will replace the existing Sport:80 system from the start of the 2026/27 membership season, with a full go-live planned for July 2026.

Cloudathlete is developed by Rocca, an existing and trusted supplier who already provide Table Tennis England with the TT Leagues and TT Clubs platforms. This continuity gives us confidence as we embark on this significant step forward in our digital journey.

What will the partnership do?

• deliver a much-improved experience for members, making it easier to join, renew and engage with the sport
• introduce a modern competition management system, giving players, clubs and tournament organisers a better way to organise and participate
• provide stronger integration across platforms, reducing duplication and creating a single view of our members and activities
• enable smarter communications, with more personalised and timely updates for different audiences
• offer data-driven insights, helping us understand participation trends and make better-informed decisions
• create a foundation that can evolve, supporting future growth and innovation in the sport

Table Tennis England CEO Sally Lockyer said: “This marks the start of a journey that will reshape how we connect with our players, volunteers, clubs and fans.

“Itâ€s not just about new systems – itâ€s about building the foundations to support every level of the game and set us up for the future.â€

Marc Rocca, CEO of Cloudathlete, said: “Weâ€re proud that Cloudathlete has been selected to deliver Table Tennis Englandâ€s new unified digital platform.

“This project will bring together membership, competitions, rankings, clubs and events into one connected system – making the experience simpler and more engaging for players, volunteers, and fans.

“By replacing multiple legacy systems with a single, modern platform, weâ€re helping the sport become more accessible, more data-driven and better connected from grassroots through to elite level.

“For us, this is about giving table tennis a digital foundation that can power growth and innovation for years to come.â€

We will keep members up to date with progress in the coming months.
