Table tennis rackets, also called paddles or bats, are lightweight handheld equipment used to hit the ball in table tennis. They typically have a wooden blade covered with rubber on one or both sides, providing grip, spin, and control during play.
In table tennis, the equipment is most commonly called "rackets" internationally, especially by the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF).
However, depending on the region:
"Bat" is often used in the UK and some Commonwealth countries.
"Paddle" is more common in the US.
So, all three terms—racket, bat, and paddle—are correct, but "racket" is the official global term.
Do you want me to give you a short description using all three names so it covers every usage?

A snooker cue stick is a long, tapered stick made of hardwood, designed to strike balls in snooker. It features a slim shaft with a leather-tipped end for precision shots and a sturdy butt for grip and balance.
A typical snooker cue weighs between 16 and 19 ounces (about 453 – 538 grams), with many players preferring cues around 17–18 oz (≈ 482 – 510 g). markrichardcues.com+3mcbillard.de+3Wikipedia+3
Here’s a concise description of a professional English snooker table, including standard specs, materials, and features:
Feature | Standard / Typical Value |
---|---|
Nominal outer size | 12 ft × 6 ft (approx 3.66 m × 1.83 m) snookerpot.com+2Wikipedia+2 |
Playing surface (between cushions) | ~ 11 ft 8½ in × 5 ft 10 in (3.569 m × 1.778 m) ± tolerance ½ in (≈±13 mm) Wikipedia+3Wikipedia+3snookerpot.com+3 |
Table height (floor to top of cushion) | ~ 87.6 – 88.1 cm ± 13 mm tolerance Creative Industries, Tourism and Sport+1 |
Pocket openings | About 86 mm (may vary slightly in tournament models) Wikipedia+1 |
Slate / bed | Usually 3-piece slate construction for stability, leveling, and flatness over large span Wikipedia+2snookerpot.com+2 |
Frame & body: Made from sturdy hardwood or engineered wood, built to support the heavy slate and resist warping.
Slate bed: Thick slate (often in 3 sections) provides a perfectly flat, rigid playing surface.
Cushions / rails: Rubber cushions (often high-quality vulcanized rubber) are mounted on the wood rails; they must be precise to ensure correct rebound angles.
Cloth / baize covering: A high-grade worsted wool cloth (often “faster” cloth in professional tables) is tightly stretched over the slate and fixed underneath.
Pockets: Tournament tables have precisely shaped rounded pocket mouths and internal “pocket liners” or leather netting using templates approved by governing bodies (e.g., WPBSA) Wikipedia+2snookerpot.com+2.
Leveling / adjustment: Professional tables include fine leveling screws or jacks under legs to ensure perfect flatness on possibly uneven floors.
Room & clearance: To play comfortably, a large room is needed — typically a room of ~22 ft × 16 ft or more (depending on cue length) is recommended for clearance around all sides. Wikipedia+2libertygames.co.uk+2
Lighting: Uniform, glare-free lighting is essential; overhead lighting systems are often installed to cover the entire playing surface evenly.
Durability & maintenance: Professional tables are built for heavy use, with replaceable parts (cushion rubber, cloth, slate) and accessible for maintenance.
Compliance with norms: For tournament play, tables must adhere to specifications defined by organizations like WPBSA and IBSF (dimensions, pocket templates, heights). Wikipedia+2snookerpot.com+2
