Rules
The official FIR Racketlon Rules apply. See www.racketlon.net.
Note especially some of the doubles specific rules:
- For table tennis, badminton and tennis, all matches are played
in doubles. Squash is an exception though where half a singles match
each is played; The "first" players start and play until
11 is reached, then the "last" players continue the match
to a finish. In each pair the "first" player has to be
the same throughout the tournament.
- In all sports (except, of course, squash) ends are switched at
11. In table tennis, the player who was in turn to serve before
the switch starts serving on the new end. The receiving pair, however,
has to swap at 11 so that each of the servers get to serve on different
receivers after the swap.
