Table tennis has a set of rules that govern how the game is played. Here are the main ones:

Table: The table is rectangular, 2.74 meters long, 1.525 meters wide, and 76 centimeters high. It is divided into two equal halves by a net that is 15.25 centimeters high. The playing surface must be dark - colored and matte to reduce glare.
Racket: The racket can be of any size, shape, or weight. However, the blade must be at least 85% natural wood. The rubbers on both sides of the blade must be of different colors, usually red and black.
Ball: The ball is spherical, with a diameter of 40mm and a weight of 2.7g. It is made of celluloid or a similar plastic material.

Toss: The server must toss the ball vertically upwards at least 16cm without imparting spin. The ball must be behind the end - line of the table and above the level of the playing surface at the start of the toss.
Contact: The server must hit the ball so that it first touches their side of the table and then, passing over or around the net, touches the receiver's side of the table.
Alternation: In a game, the serve alternates every two points. However, when the score reaches 10 - 10 (deuce), the serve alternates every point.

Return: After the serve, the players must alternately hit the ball so that it passes over or around the net and touches the opponent's side of the table.
Legal Hit: The ball must be hit with the racket - covered part of the hand. The ball can be hit before it bounces on the player's side of the table (a volley), but this is rare in normal play.
Out - of - bounds: If the ball goes beyond the end - line or side - line of the table without hitting the opponent's side of the table, it is out - of - bounds.

Point: A player scores a point when the opponent fails to make a legal serve, a legal return, or hits the ball out of bounds.
Game: A game is won by the first player to reach 11 points, with a margin of at least 2 points. If the score reaches 10 - 10, the game continues until one player has a 2 - point lead.
Match: A match is usually the best of an odd number of games, such as 3, 5, or 7 games. The player who wins the majority of the games wins the match.

Net Touch: If a player touches the net or the net - support with any part of their body or racket during play, it is a fault, and the opponent scores a point.
Table Touch: Touching the playing surface of the table with the free hand during play is a fault. However, touching the edge of the table is allowed.
Double - bounce: If the ball bounces more than once on a player's side of the table before they return it, the opponent scores a point.
