NCTTA Seeks Talented Photographers for Division Tournaments- Pathway to National Championships!

The National Collegiate Table Tennis Association (NCTTA) is calling on passionate and skilled photographers across the country to join our growing media team. If you have a keen eye for fast-paced sports action, love table tennis, and want to contribute to one of the most exciting college sports communities in North America, then this is your opportunity.

NCTTA is actively recruiting photographers to cover Division Tournaments during the 2025-2026 season. Selected individuals will have the chance to:
-Capture high-quality action photos of student-athletes in competitive matches
-Edit and upload curated images shortly after events for use on NCTTA’s media platforms
-Gain exposure through national and regional promotion of their work
-Become eligible for selection to the official NCTTA Championships Photography Team

This is more than just volunteering — it’s an opportunity to build your portfolio, work alongside a passionate team, and potentially earn a credentialed spot at the NCTTA Championships, the pinnacle event of the collegiate table tennis season.

“We’re looking for photographers who can not only snap great action shots, but also know how to tell a story through imagery — fast reactions, great timing, and the ability to edit and share quickly are what make someone stand out,” said Willy Leparulo, NCTTA President.

Requirements:
-Access to professional or semi-professional photography equipment
-Experience shooting sports or fast-moving events (preferably indoor/action)
-Ability to edit and upload photos within 24-48 hours post-event

Include:
-Your photography portfolio (especially any sports/action work)
