Scoring in Table Tennis
Tony Ettinger draws on more than 30 years of financial services experience to serve as senior managing director of KCK-US. Outside of work, Tony Ettinger pursues active hobbies such as table tennis.
In a table tennis match, players compete in a series of games. While international rules allow for any odd number of games, most official singles competitions challenge competitors to win the best of seven games, and teams play to the best of five. In a team match, these matches typically break down to four singles matches and one doubles match.
Games consist of volleys that start with a serve. Serves alternate every two points, and players score points by making a hit that lands on the opposite side of the table which the opponent cannot return. A point also goes to the opponent of any player who hits the ball twice before it passes over the net, or who makes contact with the ball with a body part, clothing, or side of the racket.
A player or team wins a match by scoring 11 points, though the competitor or competitors must be leading by two points to win. If the match extends beyond 10 minutes and neither party has scored 18 points or more, the umpire may stop the game and implement the expedite system. Serves then alternate, starting with the most recent server until the receiver has made 13 allowed returns, at which point that player receives a point.
