UTT 2025: Complete list of coaching staff of all eight teams in season 6
For the first time in Ultimate Table Tennis’ history, teams have been given the freedom to handpick their own coaching staff.
Dronacharya Awardee Raman Subramanian, German specialist Chris Pfeiffer—who has coached stars like Sharath Kamal and Manika Batra—veteran trainers Pavel Rehorek and Julien Girard, and former India No. 1 Jubin Kumar are all set to make their Ultimate Table Tennis (UTT) debuts in Season 6.
Joining them are returning coaches Elena Timina, Parag Agrawal, Subhajit Saha, Soumyadeep Roy, and Sachin Shetty, all eyeing their second UTT title.
