About
About
Aim of the game
Popularly known as ‘ping-pong’, the sport consists of two players either side of a waist-high table using small bats to hit a light, plastic ball over the net and onto the other side, winning a point if the opponent fails to return it
Why should you watch this?
The ninja-like reflexes of the players cannot fail but amaze those watching – just imagine trying to return a smash travelling at full pace towards you from the bat of an Olympic champion
Venues
-
Topspin
Attacking stroke that generates speed and spin on the ball
-
Block
Shot used to counter a topspin stroke, turning the speed of the attacking shot back on the opponent
-
Chop
Striking sharply under the ball to slow it down and make it bounce low off the playing surface
Scoring
Matches are split up into games in which the first player(s) to score 11 points wins. If players or teams tie at 10-10, a two-point margin is needed to win. A singles match is the best of seven games and the team competition consists of four singles matches and one doubles, each one the best of five games.
A player wins a point when the opponent:
- misses the table with the ball as he attempts to return it
- plays the ball into the net
- misses the ball altogether after it has hit their side of the table
- touches the playing surface with their free hand
Service
A serve must bounce once on both sides of the table to be valid (in doubles games, players on the same side take turns returning the ball) and the server alternates every two points or after every point if the score reaches 10-10.
The ball is playable whenever it has touched the playing surface on the opponent’s side of the net, even if it hits the line or edge, or goes ‘around’ the side of the net.
Equipment
Ball: with 40mm in diameter and weighing 2.7g, the ball is made of plastic and can be white or orange.
Bat: is made of wood and covered with rubber (red on one side, black on the other) to help induce spin, with a total maximum thickness of 4mm.
