India will host the 2014 Asian Junior Table Tennis Championships in Bangalore.

The decision was taken at an Asian Table Tennis Union (ATTU) meeting which coincided with the senior Asian Championships in Busan earlier this month.

"It was decided that the next Asian Juniors will take place in India next year, sometime in August. The most likely venue will be the Kanteerava Stadium in Bangalore," Dhanraj Choudhary, secretary general at the Table Tennis Federation of India, told IANS. Choudhary is also the ATTU treasurer.

India last hosted the Championships in New Delhi in 2011. The 2013 edition will be held in Doha.

In 2012, India organised the world juniors for the first time.
