Rules & Regulations
Scoring System
- All the games will be played on a league cum-knock out basis.
- A set is won when one team first scores 11 points.

- A full match is won when a team wins the best of 3 sets.
General Rules
- The generic rules of Table Tennis apply, including the important ones mentioned below. In any disputes or disagreements during a match, the decision of Referees/ Organizing Committee shall be final and binding.
- Each side of the table alternates serving two points at a time. EXCEPTION: After tied 10-10 (“deuce”), service alternates at every point.
- Toss the ball straight up when serving. Once the ball leaves the server’s hand it is in play, and so counts as the receiver’s point if the ball is missed or mis-hit.
- In Singles, the serve can land anywhere in the opponent court.
- In Doubles, serve must bounce in the server’s right court, and receiver’s right court. Doubles partners switch places after their team serves twice.
- If a served ball hits the net on the way over and otherwise legally bounces in play, it’s a “let” serve and is done over. There is no limit on how many times this can happen.
- Doubles partners must alternate hitting balls in a rally, no matter where the ball lands on the table.
- If the ball touches your Paddle hand and otherwise results in a legal hit, there is no rule violation and play shall continue as normal.
- You may not touch the table or ball with your non-paddle hand. If the table moves at all from your touching it during a rally, that is your opponent’s point.
- A legal serve or hit may contact the top edge of the horizontal table top surface and be counted as valid, even if it bounces sidewise. The vertical sides of the table are NOT part of the legal playing surface.
