What is Table Tennis.

Also known as Ping Pong, Table Tennis is a very popular and olympic sport. Never heard of Table Tennis? Want to know how to play? Great! I will now explain the laws',rules' and properties of the spectacular sport.

Table Tennis is a sport played on a table, played either 1 on 1 (solo) or 2 on 2 (team). Table Tennis is like regular tennis, but played on a table and with a significantly smaller net. A table is spilt into quarters'- horizontally with the net and then vertically with a while line through the middle. This is for 1 reason when playing solo: When serving (you bounce it once in one of your quarters' and make it bounce diagonally into the quarter on their side.) and for two reasons when playing team: 1.serving. 2: When it is hit to you, depending on what square it bounces in, it determines who is to hit the ball.E.G: If the ball is hit to you and it is not a serve, if it bounces in your square, you must hit the ball, if it bounces in your partners square, they are to hit the ball.

To play Table Tennis you need A proper Table Tennis table and 2 bats for solo, or 4 bats for 2 on 2, and some Ping Pong balls. The bat must have a coarse black side, and soft red side. And the table must be divided into quarters.

To win a match of table tennis, you must get the other player(s) out 11 times (11 points) by a 2-point margin, if there is no two-point margin when the first person hits 11 points, you enter a tie-break. To win tie break, it is first to 7 points. Service change (the person who serves the ball is changed) occurs when a point is scored.

Like most games, Table Tennis has penalties. If you get a yellow card it is a warning. To get a yellow card, there a many bad things' you must have done. Like: A coach giving you tips during a match or between scores. A coach may only give advice to the player during game intervals' and before a game.The coach will be given a warning if he does this. Another way is player behavior, like Racist comments,rude gestures and bad language can result in a yellow card when you do it once. Red cards are when a coach has already received a yellow card and still continues to give advice at illegal times. Another way to get a red card is by a player repeating offenses, or kicking the table, resulting in an instant red card. There a other ways of getting penalties',but these are most common.
