The Largest Table Tennis Platform in Ukraine SETKA CUP Opened New Location and Increased The Number of Games
Ukraine’s largest platform for table tennis development, SETKA CUP, opened a new location in Lviv. SETKA CUP’s total area in Kyiv and Dnipro was 2,330 sq. meters. Lviv expanded it to 2,730 sq. meters.
All rooms at locations are named in accordance with a specific concept. Lviv rooms have the names of the most influential cities in ping-pong history – ‘London’ and ‘Beijing’. ‘Beijing’ has an area of 8×16 meters and today is the largest of all SETKA CUP rooms.
“This new location enables us to hold tournaments of all levels. In addition, we will expand the table tennis community, which already consists of more than 550 rated players and 5,000 fans,” Denys Kalachevskyi, SETKA CUP tournaments organizer, said.
SETKA CUP holds 6,500+ matches per month. All games are dynamic, have an average duration of 30 minutes, and combined with live analytics and detailed player statistics.
Each game can have up to 20 markets.
“We have 24/7 live streaming, and up to 7 table tennis games happen simultaneously.
Our athletes don’t play more than three days in a row and can’t participate in more than one tournament per day. It helps to avoid sports injuries and professional burn-out. And of course, we comply with all the quarantine rules and check the health of our players daily,” Denys added.
Only three people can be present in a room during the game: two players and one referee. This rule helps prevent any influence on players and avoid any possible interference in the game’s outcome.
SETKA CUP is the professional league and the largest platform for table tennis development in Ukraine, established in 2018. SETKA CUP organizes open non-commercial tournaments and has more than 6500+ commercial table tennis and tennis tournaments per month. The table tennis of SETKA CUP is worldwide known in the sports betting industry and among fans.
The platform also has unique media channels with English-language content that cover sporting and educational events of table tennis. The content of SETKA CUP is popular in 150+ countries around the world.

CEO of GGBET UA Serhii Mishchenko
GGBET UA kicks off the “Keep it GG” promotional campaign
A leading gaming brand in Ukraine has launched a collection of ads featuring the tagline “Keep it GG” as part of an extensive communications initiative. The videos are currently being broadcast on Ukrainian TV, online platforms, and the brand’s social media accounts.
“GG” (Good Game) started in video game culture, yet its significance has far surpassed the literal meaning of “well played.” Currently, it symbolizes a worldwide sign of honor and gratitude for the feelings exchanged following a match, no matter the outcome. This concept served as the basis for GGBET UA’s latest marketing campaign. The video series embodies a unique GG atmosphere: rather than using a conventional voiceover, it incorporates complete audio tracks; the narrative features both literal and metaphorical allusions to sports and esports terms, alongside in-game and casino aspects; and prominent Ukrainian footballers are among the main characters.
“Every game, every match, every tournament is a moment that brings people together. For us, it’s important that every interaction with GGBET gives users that good game feeling — an experience that outlives the result and leaves vivid emotions behind, just like after watching a match,” comments CEO of GGBET UA, Serhii Mishchenko.
Going beyond the traditional view of GG also signifies a more profound implication — the brand’s strategic focus. The international brand, which has concentrated on esports for several years and attained significant success in esports betting and collaborations, is now adopting best practices to enhance traditional sports in regional markets. GGBET UA showcases a wider strategy for Good Game via collaborations (FC Dynamo Kyiv, FC Polissya, and the Ukrainian Basketball Federation), by organizing its own events and special projects, including initiatives that blend sports with esports, like the Match of LeGGends: Derby showmatch on the server featuring esports athletes and football players.
The brand’s creative team collaborated with a Ukrainian advertising agency and a Ukrainian production company to develop the commercials. GGBET UA made this choice to assist the local creative sector amid the war.
