ball

They vary in price from cheap 10-cent balls that break on contact with a racket to three-star quality balls that cost nearly a dollar each. A poorly made ball tends to be lopsided, with soft spots, so that it not only breaks easily, it doesn't bounce the same way each time. You should probably go for the expensive three-stars.

USA

In ________ the term is "bat".

Europe

The official ITTF term is "_______"

racket

Table tennis __________ allow different surfaces on each side of the racket. The different types of surface provide various levels of spin or speed, or in some cases, nullify spin.

regulations

Racket ______________ and __________________________ (skilled elite players typically select and attach the rubber to their own rackets and glue them before every match) contribute significantly to the amount of deviation from the expected ball flight path. The fairly recent development of speed glue speeds up the departure of the ball from the rubber considerably, through at the cost of some ball control.

construction, new rubber technology

This is the most widely used rubber type. The surface is smooth, with the pimpled side facing inwards toward the blade. This enables the player to generate high level of spin and speed. Spin is mainly generated not by the action of the top sheet alone, but also by the ball sinking into the sponge and allowing greater surface area to contact the ball.

Inverted (non-Chinese)

Typically have sticker (or "tackier") top sheets. Spin is generated mainly by the top sheet, as opposed to the sponge, which is relatively more condensed and firmer. The result is usually a far better short game and potential power capabilities than normal inverted.

Inverted (Chinese)

_____ pimples-out rubbers are usually used by close-to- the-table hitters (for example, ______________). They do not generate as much spin as inverted rubbers, but also make the user less susceptible to the opponent's spin. Speed generated from a short pip rubber is generally faster than the inverted with the same sponge. Depending on the thickness of the sponge it is also possible to play a chopping game with short pimples by varying the spin of the return. While blocking and attacking a "________" effect is often noticed. __________ is an exponent of this style.

Short, Liu Guoliang, dead balls, Ding Song

Out rubbers carry relatively long and soft pips. They do not have the ability to generate any real spin of their own, but feed off the opponent's spin back upon impact as the pips bend and slide. They are usually used by closed-to-the-table blockers or choppers. They are usually only used on the backhand side, as they offer very limited attacking capabilities. Depending on the grip of the pimples and the thickness of the sponge it is also possible to play an aggressive game with long pips, though with not much spin capability.

Long Pimples

This rubbers may look similar to inverted ones, but the surface is really slick. Like long pimples, they cannot generate much real spin, but just allows the user to produce a non-spin ball. Anti-spin in also not very susceptible to the opponents incoming spin, due to the low coefficient of friction of the rubber's surface. This is also used to confuse the opponent, and is not widely used at international level.

Anti-spin

In top-flight competition, service is decided by a coin toss, at lower levels it is common for one player (or the umpire/scorer) to hide the ball in one or the other hand (usually hidden under the table), allowing the other player to guess which hand the ball is in the correct or incorrect guess gives the "winner" the option to choose to serve, or to choose which side of the table to use. In recreational games, the players may have a rally for a minimum set number of 10 hits, after which the rally is played out, with the winner either choosing to serve or choosing the table side. Others use the "P-O-N-G" or "P-I-N-G" method rallying back and forth spelling a letter of P-O-N-G or P-I-N-G after every hit. After P-O-N-G or P-I-N-G is spelled the person to win the rally also wins the serve.

Starting Game

In game play, the player serving the ball commences a point. Standing behind the end game of the table, with the ball in the palm of one hand-over the table's height and the paddle in the other, the server tosses the ball without spin, upward, at least sixteen centimeters (approximately 6 inches). He or she then must hit the ball such that it bounces once on his or her half of the table, and then bounces at least one time on the opponent's half. If the ball strikes the net but does not strike the opponent's half of the table, then a point is awarded to the opponent. However, if the ball hits the net, but nevertheless goes over and bounces on the other side, it is called a let (or net-in). Play stops, and the ball must be served again with no penalty. Unlike the old service rules, where a player may only commit three lets, now a players may commit any number of lets without penalty. If the service is "good" return by returning the ball before it bounces on his or her side of the table a second time. Returning the serve is one of the most difficult parts of the game, as the server's first move is often the least predictable.

Service

Any_____________________ must be done such that the (keyword) passes over or around the net. If the (-) struck such that it travels around the net, but still lands on the opponents cannot return it over (or around) the net and make it bounce on your side, then win the point.

Hitting the Ball

Points are awarded to the opponent for any of several errors in play.

Scoring

After each game, players switch sides of the table and in the fifth or seventh, game "for the match", players switch sides when the first player scores 5 points, regardless of whose turn is to serve. In competition play, matches are typically best of five or seven games.

Series of Games

Some recreational players may choose to use a volleyball style system of scoring and play. Such variations include, but are not limited to, allowing the let serve, not requiring the server to hit the ball on his half of the table first (but still allowing it), allowing the volleying of returns and relaxing other small rules in doubles to make the game easier to play. Common recreational scoring styles includes best of three game side out scoring to 15, 21, 25, or 30 points per game with a third game being played rally style to 15, best of five game rally style play with each game, save the fifth (to 15), played to 30 points, and traditional tennis scoring.

Recreational Variations

In addition to games between individual players, pairs may also play table tennis..

Double Games

Competitive table tennis players ___ their bats in a variety of ways. The manner in which competitive players grip their bats can be classified into two major families of styles. One is described as pen hold, and the other shake hand. The Laws of the Table Tennis do not prescribe the manner in which one must grip the bat, and numerous variations on gripping styles exist.

This styles are popular among players originating from _____ nations such as China. Taiwan. Japan and South Korea. Traditionally, (-) players use only one side of the bat to hit the ball during normal play. The side which is in contact with the last three fingers is generally not use.

A noticeable spin benefit is noticed due to the longer lever and mechanics utilized in the forchand and backhand (much like those found in the Western grip in tennis).

China, V, V-Grip

A grip that was made famous by ___________________, an American champion. This grip is a variation of the shakehand grip. In this grip, the forefinger and thumb are placed on the same side of the bat, which allows the backhand and forehand. shots to use the same side of the rubber.
