The player who scores 11 points per game wins, but must be more than 2 points ahead of their opponent. If the score is tied at 10, then the match will enter the "plus points" phase, where the player who scores 2 points in a row first wins. In each match, both sides take turns serving, and after each serve, the receiving side needs to shoot back. In the process of fighting back, athletes can use a variety of techniques and tactics to fight for points. In addition, there are some special rules for table tennis matches, such as not taking your feet off the ground when serving, and the racket must be below the waist.
Next, let's take a look at the way table tennis is played. Table tennis is mainly divided into two types of play: offensive and defensive. Attacking players focus on power and speed, and are good at using strong attacks to suppress opponents and strive for direct scoring. Defensive players focus on skill and variety, and are adept at creating mistakes through clever counter-attacks to get chances. In actual matches, players need to flexibly use various playing styles according to their own characteristics and the situation of their opponents.
The main characteristics of the offensive style of play are high power, fast speed, and a lot of variation in landing points. Offensive players often choose a serve with strong spin and speed in the hope of scoring directly or forcing the opponent to make mistakes. When receiving serves, offensive players will try to attack quickly in order to establish an advantage quickly. In the stalemate phase, the attacking players will constantly try various strong and fast attacks in order to break the deadlock. In addition, attacking players also need to have a strong mental quality, as they need to remain calm and decisive in the face of strong defensive pressure.
The main characteristics of defensive play are high skill, variety, and stability. Defensive players tend to serve in a more conservative way to better control the pace of the match. When receiving serves, defensive players will try to choose a consistent return style to reduce mistakes. In the stalemate phase, defensive players will create mistakes through clever changes and spins. In addition, defensive players also need to have a lot of patience and perseverance, as they need to maintain confidence and persistence in the face of strong offensive pressure.
In actual matches, players need to flexibly adjust their playing style according to the characteristics of their opponents and the situation on the court. For example, when facing an offensive player, a defensive player can try to weaken the opponent's offensive ability by strengthening spin and variation;When facing defensive players, offensive players can try to break down the opponent's defense by increasing the tempo and increasing their strength. In short, there are many ways to play table tennis, and the key is how players can develop appropriate tactics according to their own characteristics and the situation of their opponents.
