Table tennis – men's teamat the Games of the XXXII Olympiad
Venue Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium Date 1–6 August 2021 Competitors 48 from 16 nations Teams 16
The men's team table tennis event was part of the table tennis programme at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. The event took place from 1 August to 6 August 2021 at Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium .
Format
Teams were made up of three players. Each team match was made up of five individual matches and ended when either side has won three matches. The order of a team match was changed as follows: a doubles match, two singles matches, and if neither side had won three matches by this point, a maximum of two extra singles matches were played.[1] The new order avoids any players playing two matches in succession, and forces players who play two singles to compete in the second individual match.
