Table tennis

Table tennis has always been popular in Britain, but nowadays the sport is dominated by Asian countries - especially China.

The game
Table tennis is a simple game which can be played by singles or doubles.

A player scores a point by winning a rally and the first player to 11 wins the set. Matches are played over five sets.
