Table Tennis on Rankelo

What a table tennis league looks like here.

Rankelo is built around a sport abstraction: every sport brings its own scoring rules, and the leagues, fixtures and standings work the same whatever you play. This is what table tennis brings.

Games to 11, won by two

The modern rule, checked on entry. 11-9 and 13-11 both count; 11-10 is refused before it reaches the table.

Best of five, or three, or seven

Best of five is the default. A short-format league plays best of three; a club match plays best of seven. Same sport, one setting.

Singles and doubles

Table tennis doubles ranks named pairs as teams, so the two who always play together can have their own record.

League types

  • Table Tennis— one player per side
  • Table Tennis Doubles— a named pair per side

Individual and team leagues are separate leagues, so a club can run both from one account.

How it works

From idea to table tennis standings in four steps.

  1. 1

    Create a league

    Pick table tennis — or table tennis doubles — then best of three, five or seven, and how many times each pairing meets.

  2. 2

    Add the players

    A name is enough — they do not need an account. Add an email too and they link to their own match history automatically the day they register.

  3. 3

    Open the league

    Rankelo generates the fixtures for every pairing, once or as many times as you set. If the roster changes later the schedule reconciles — matches already played are kept.

  4. 4

    Play

    A player enters 11-9, 8-11, 11-6, 11-7 from the table. The ladder reorders before the next pair is on.

Scoring & standings

How table tennis is scored in Rankelo.

Table tennis is a run of games, each a race to 11 points won by two, with no cap. It is the sport the extensibility guide uses as its worked example of adding a new sport, and it cost exactly what that example promised: the numbers and the format list, nothing else.

A race to a targetEach row is a race to a point target won by a margin, and the row tally decides the match.

Match formats you can choose

  • Best of three games — A short-format league.
  • Best of five games — The default, and the standard match.
  • Best of seven games — For a club league that wants the longer match.

Points systems a table tennis league can pick from

Chosen per league, and changeable at any time — switch it and every match already played is re-scored.

  • 3 for a win, 1 for a game taken in defeat (default)
  • 2 for a win, 1 for a game taken in defeat
  • 3 for a win, 1 for a loss
  • 2 for a win, 1 for a loss
  • 1 for a win, nothing for a loss
  • 3 for a win in straight games, 2 and 1 when it goes the distance

Service rotation, the expedite rule and the pre-2001 21-point game are not modelled — none of them changes what a finished game records.

End the table tennis season with playoffs.

Any table tennis league can finish with a knockout phase: once every round is played, the final table seeds a single-elimination bracket — reorder the seeds if you like, byes go to the top seeds, and a third-place match is optional. Or skip the season and run a straight knockout from day one.

How tournaments work

Features

Everything a table tennis league needs.

Standings that follow your rules

Three points for a win and one for a game taken in defeat, then head-to-head, game difference and point difference. Switch the points system whenever the league decides to.

Automatic fixtures

Every pairing × your chosen number of meetings, generated in one click when the league opens.

Players without accounts

Add someone by name and the league can start right away. They register with the same email later and pick up their matches.

Public standings

Share a link and anyone can open the table — no login, no account, nothing to install.

On your phone, in your language

Enter the score where you played it. The app runs in English and Slovenian, light or dark.

Traceable results

Every entry records who submitted it and when. Corrections go through a league admin, so the table never quietly changes.

Playoffs and brackets

End the season with a knockout seeded from the final table, or run a straight bracket from day one — seeding, byes and an optional third-place match included.
