Table tennis doubles service order

The service order of table tennis doubles is to draw lots at the beginning of each game to decide which side will serve first, which side will choose the court or receive the service first.

1, the basic principles of serving order in table tennis doubles

The server can freely choose any one of the two players as the first server, and the receiver can also freely choose any one of the two players as the first receiver.

Each player can only serve two balls in a row at a time, and then exchange the right to serve. The exchange order of service rights is: A → X → B → Y → A → X → B → Y...(A and B are one party, and X and Y are the other).

The server must stand on his right half and throw the ball diagonally from his right half to the opponent's right half. The catcher must stand on the opponent's right half and throw the ball diagonally from the opponent's right half to his right half. If the serve or receive does not meet this requirement, it will be judged as a mistake.

2. Explain the service order of table tennis doubles.

Ensure that every player has an equal opportunity to participate in the competition and prevent a player from being passive or active for a long time.

Ensure that each player can show his skills and tactics in different positions and angles, and increase the diversity and interest of the game.

Ensure that each player can effectively cooperate and communicate with his partner and opponent, and improve the level and quality of the competition.

Ensure the order and rhythm of the game, and avoid disputes and delays caused by serving or receiving.

Techniques and tactics of table tennis doubles

1, service and reception

Because the serve and receive of table tennis doubles must be placed diagonally, both serve and receive need to control their own strength and angle, and try to let the ball land in the opponent's right back corner or left front corner, which will cause pressure and difficulties to the opponent.

2. Attack and defense

Because the field of table tennis doubles is narrower than that of singles, it is more difficult and important to attack and defend. Attackers need to use their own speed, strength, angle, rotation and other techniques to try to hit the ball that makes it difficult for opponents to return the ball or make mistakes.
