UTT Juniors Season 2: U Mumba Make Ahona Ray First Pick As Squads Take Shape With Player Draft
Dream Sports Championships Table Tennis: U Mumba TT made rising paddler Ahona Ray — winner of the girls’ singles title at the WTT Youth Contender Doha 2026 and a medallist across national and continental competitions — the first overall pick in the UTT Juniors Season 2 Draft, as all seven franchises finalised their squads for the upcoming grassroots competition, set to be held from July 8 to 19 alongside UTT Season 7 in Goa.
Returning for its second edition, UTT Juniors will once again integrate India’s brightest U-15 paddlers, selected from the Dream Sports Championships Table Tennis 2026 held earlier this year in Chennai, into the professional UTT ecosystem, with 14 players — seven boys and seven girls — drafted across the league’s seven franchises.
The drafted players bring with them impressive credentials from the WTT Youth circuit and other international competitions. Defending champions Kolkata ThunderBlades added the promising duo of Vatsal Duklan and Titash Chatterjee to their roster, while the reversal of the draft order in the second round saw Dabang Delhi TTC complete the selections through Himon Mondal and Sreejani Chakraborty.
