Hi Dennis,

You are only allowed to change bats during a match if you break it accidentally.  Here is an extract from the ITTF regulations.

 3.04.02.02  A racket shall not be replaced during an individual match unless it is accidentally damaged so badly that it cannot be used; if this happens the damaged racket shall be replaced immediately by another which the player has brought with him to the playing area or one which is handed to him in the playing area.

Olympic Table Tennis: What You Will (and Definitely Won’t) See

The Olympic Games showcase the highest level of table tennis… but there are some things you definitely won’t see on that stage 😂

In this video, we take a fun look at:

✅ What really happens at the Olympics – like high toss serves and insane around-the-net shots ❌ And what definitely doesn’t – like giant bats, tiny paddles, and other PingSkills chaos

🎯 It's a mix of serious skill and a bit of silliness—just how we like it.
