Up to 11 or 21?
Rules
Jorge Sanchez Asked 15 years ago
Hello, my question is about up to what point does the score go? I've seen times when it goes up to 11 with each player having 2 serves. But many people tell me it is up to 21 with 5 serves each. Which one is true?

Hi Jorge,
The new rule is up to 11 and 2 serves each.
The old rules was up to 21. All international competition is played up to 11 so that is the best way to go for now.

Doubles Serving Rules
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.
