You will also find two categories of table tennis rackets based on the nature of the game;

• Offensive rackets
• Defensive rackets

Offensive rackets:

They come with increased spin and accurate hitting. They allow for increased grip on the TT ball. These rackets are suitable if you want to make stronger offensive shots to win rallies. There are two further types of offensive table tennis rackets; inverted table tennis rackets and pip out.

• Inverted table tennis rackets: They have a layer of rubber that has rows of small pips. The pip face is made in an inward direction that creates a flat surface, which helps to increase the amount of control on the TT ball.
• Pips out table tennis rackets: These types of rackets have the pips pointing outward, which gives the racket a rough texture. A pips-out table tennis racket hits the ball harder but provides less spin on the ball.

Defensive rackets:

Defensive rackets don’t place the spin on the ball. Instead, they reverse the spin that is put on the ball by your opponent.

There are two further categories of defensive table tennis rackets;

• Antispin
• Long pips.

Antispin table tennis rackets; have a soft surface made of a soft sponge. However, it is difficult to create a spin on the ball using Antispin table tennis rackets.

Long pips table tennis rackets; have longer, thinner pips as compared to standard pips-out rackets. The texture of the racket changes every time when you hit the ball with a long pips racket; it will lead to unexpected shots for your opponent.
