The Swaythling Cup

... is awarded to the winners of the men's team event, at the (now biennial) World Table Tennis Championships. It was donated in 1926 (the year of the inaugural championships) by Lady Baroness Swaythling. She was the mother of Ivor Montagu, the first President of the International Table Tennis Federation.
