Setka Cup live: singles table tennis played round the clock
A privately run table tennis series
Setka Cup, spelled SETKA CUP on its own website, is a private table tennis series that began in Ukraine in 2018 with one-on-one matches. Table tennis is the brand's core sport, though the same name has also covered tennis and beach volleyball events. Entry is individual: there are no squads and no clubs, only two real players facing each other across a real table.
Every day of the year, with no season attached
Matches run daily, weekends and public holidays included, on a continuous 24/7/365 cycle. The product showcase advertises more than 140,000 events a year and over 11,300 a month, while a release issued by the project in March 2026 counts more than 135,000 matches a year. Events and matches are tallied differently in those two places, so neither figure works as a firm measurement.
Nothing is crowned at the end of that flow either — no annual title is awarded. The platform does maintain a participant rating instead: position and win percentage refresh in real time and can be read alongside each game.
Where Setka Cup stands in the sport
The series belongs to no national pyramid. It is a commercial, privately operated competition rather than a federation championship, and that status explains why so little paperwork surrounds it. Agreements with official table tennis bodies do exist, and most of them carry a date.
Body | What was signed | Date |
|---|---|---|
Table Tennis Federation of Ukraine — ethics and fair play committee | undertaking signed by entrants of the Ukrainian tournaments, with the committee able to impose suspensions | not published |
Table Tennis Federation of Moldova | partnership agreement | 2022 |
Table Tennis Federation of Moldova | four-year strategic agreement | 06.03.2026 |
Prague Table Tennis Association | partnership agreement, later extended | July 2021, extended October 2022 |
Those documents cover entrants and local partnership work. They do not make the series a federation event: the schedule, the ranking and the admission of players stay with the competition itself.
What the competition never published
No official rulebook has been posted by the tournament: how a set is scored, how the draw is assembled and how players earn a place are set out nowhere. Prize money is not published in any currency. There is no current list of active halls either, so the venue behind any given session stays undocumented, and no history of past winners or title counts has ever been released.
Pre-match reading therefore stays close to the screen: the full event label and the two names on the card.
Telling the two draws apart
Statistics feeds carry the competition under two separate labels: Setka Cup Men, filed in the Ukraine section, and Setka Cup Women, filed under International. Reading the label in full is what keeps two near-identical cards, minutes apart, from being confused.
Everything currently on the tables sits in live table tennis. Because the cycle never pauses, something is usually in play whatever the hour in Morocco.

Setka Cup: quick answers
How many players take part?
The product page claims more than 1,000 active players, and an August 2025 feature marking seven years of the project put the total at over 2,300 athletes. Both counts come from the competition itself and have no independent confirmation.
Is the prize money known?
No. Not a single prize figure has been published in any currency, and no reward structure for the players has ever been made public.
