T2 Asia Pacific Table Tennis League 2017!

It is a DHS D40+, mentioned by the commentators, at least here in UK, several times. I think it is actually printed on the ball too, but difficult to see, as they are more likely to show close-ups of the T2 side.

The new inaugural 'T2 Asia Pacific Table Tennis League' has been announced! Players will compete in the men's, women's and mixed-team events.

12 male players and 12 female players will be competing in the new league which has an impressive $1.5 million prize fund from July to December in Hong Kong!

The games will introduce several innovative ideas to change things up for the sport. To make the game more spectator-friendly, it will incorporate slow-motion presentation while adopting a player draft and a unique scoring system. Time limits of 24 minutes per match will be imposed on each match. These innovative concepts will be introduced in the hopes to improve spectators but hopefully great for the spectators.

There will be 6 rounds from June 27th to November 4th 2017.
