Rules
For Example, if I have 2 bats, one for offensive play and one for defensive play. Suppose I was using the offensive bat during the first set and then wanted to use the defensive bat for the second set, is it legal to do so?
I know it is better to only focus on one playstyle, and I am not planning to do the above, but just curious if that's allowed in terms of the rule.
Thanks
Hi Hin,
You are only allowed to change a bat during a match if you damage it accidentally. Otherwise you need to stay with the same bat.
In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.
