Polybat is a cross between table tennis and air hockey. It is played on a typical table tennis table but with the net removed, and with two side panels to contain the movements of the ball.
The game is played:
either as a singles or doubles game
with an adapted bat and ball
The scoring works as follows:
the aim is to be the first player to score 11 points
points are scored by hitting the ball successfully off the table at your opponent's end
points are also awarded to the other team if a player hits the ball and it leaves the surface of the table
