Best Answer

The number of times the players switch sides depends on how long the match goes / how many total points there are in the game.

During the first two sets, they switch sides when the points total a multiple of 7.

If the match goes to a third set, they switch sides when the points total a multiple of 5.

When do you switch sides in a ping pong game?

Each player has two services, then service switches to the other player. Players change ends at the end of each game (which is up to 11), and also when one player or pair have scored five points in the deciding game. So if a match is best of seven games, you switch sides at the end of each game and if the match is three games each, you also switch sides when one player or pair have scored five points in the final seventh game.


What is the reason players switch sides in tennis?

Players switch sides in tennis on odd games to ensure fairness. On one side, a player may be forced to look into the sun and have the wind against them while the player on the other side has the wind helping them and the sun behind them. It's not fair to have these sorts of conditions constantly go against one player and for the other, so players switch sides to neutralize any effects from the conditions.
