Unlike the singles game where the ball can bounce anywhere on the table during service, in doubles, the ball can only bounce on the right half portion of the table for both the server and the receiver.
Keeping this in view, what are the rules of doubles table tennis?
One may also ask, are there differences in service rules in playing table tennis doubles and singles? Doubles play – what’s different to singles? The service itself is exactly the same as in singles except that, rather than the ball bouncing anywhere on the table, it must bounce only on the right half portion of the table for both the server and the receiver.
Accordingly, what is the difference between doubles and singles in tennis?
Singles involves two players competing against each other, usually two men or two women, although games between a man and a woman may be played on an informal basis or as exhibitions. Doubles is played by two teams of two players each, most often all-male or all-female.
