Including the parasport events, there was a nominal total of 192 quota places available for table tennis at the 2022 Commonwealth Games; 96 each for men and women.
[1][2] Such was the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic that key competitions (namely Regional Qualifiers and the 2021 Commonwealth Championships) did not take place.
As a result, Commonwealth Sport (CGF) and the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) decided that where Olympic-style table tennis was concerned, qualification for the Commonwealth Games should primarily be determined by the most recent period in which the pandemic was not a factor in qualifying opportunities, i.e.
Each Commonwealth Games Association (CGA) that qualifies a team of 4 players (or 3 if they so choose) may also enter 3 players per singles event and 2 pairs per doubles event (plus a third mixed doubles pair if they qualify a men's and women's team).
CGAs that qualify individuals (limit of 2 per gender) may enter 2 players per singles event and 1 pair per doubles event (plus a second mixed doubles pair if four individuals qualify).
