Hi, I’m Roni Kuklitski, the founder of Rule Ping Pong.
I’ve played table tennis as an amateur for many years. Like a lot of recreational players, I learned the game in an informal way, with house rules, whatever paddle was lying around and plenty of arguments about whether a serve was legal. The more I played, the more I wanted clear, reliable answers, and I found that a lot of the information online was either confusing, outdated or written mainly to sell equipment.
That’s why I started Rule Ping Pong: a place for straightforward, accurate table tennis guides for everyday players.

How We Write Our Guides
Our rules and equipment specifications are based on the official ITTF Handbook, the rulebook of the International Table Tennis Federation. When the rules change, we update our articles. We also point out where common house rules differ from the official ones, so you know what applies in a casual game and what applies in a club or tournament.
Rule Ping Pong doesn’t use affiliate links or sponsored content. Our guides are written to answer your questions, not to sell you equipment.
