USA Table Tennis Member Code of Conduct

As a member of USA Table Tennis, I am committed to fair competition and respect for other members and opponents, including athletes, coaches, umpires, referees, volunteers, tournament officials, administrators, parents, spectators and fans, regardless of race, creed, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation. I understand that sportsmanship is a key tenet of competition and will exhibit the qualities of sportsmanship at all times.

I will:

  • Act in a sportsmanlike manner consistent with the spirit of fair play and responsible conduct.
  • Abide by all applicable USA Table Tennis rules and regulations, including USA Table Tennis’s SafeSport Policy and The Laws of Table Tennis.
  • Respect the rights, dignity and worth of all members and opponents, including athletes, coaches, umpires, referees, volunteers, tournament officials, administrators, parents, spectators, and fans, regardless of race, creed, color, religion, national origin, ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation.
  • Support clean competition, including an environment free of doping, and will follow all applicable rules related to anti-doping as established by the United States Anti-Doping Agency, the World Anti-Doping Agency and the International Table Tennis Federation.
  • Respect my competitors and other members of the table tennis community in person or via electronic or phone communication or social media. Accordingly, I will not bully, harass or otherwise be disrespectful or disparaging to others.
  • Remember that at all times I am an ambassador for the sport of table tennis, whether in or out of competition.

Failure to comply with the USA Table Tennis Member Code of Conduct may result in disciplinary action.
