England's men and women have failed to qualify for the European Table Tennis Team Championships in Lisbon.
The male team suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Belgium in their last-eight match and then lost by the same scoreline to Slovenia.
Overall, the men finished 23rd after securing a 3-1 victory over Turkey, while the women's team succumbed to a 3-2 loss against Greece in their divisional quarter-final.
Despite the loss, the women went on to grab victories over Bulgaria and Slovenia, leaving them in 21st position overall.
The European Games are scheduled for next summer in Baku, Azerbaijan.
