Blue tables?

[Iliam Ayan]

In our club there is no chance for blue tables also for yellow balls. Yellow balls are only used in training.

When you choose the ball you should also consider the colour of the floor and the background!
A wooden floor and an orange ball might be a bad combination.
Same with a white or light grey floor and a white ball.

That is the former point.
The walls and the floor is much more important to the colour of the balls.
(may be the light also).
I am not fond of balls that nearly disappear when they left the table .

The most clubs in germany still play at the moment on green tables, but in the most other countries, all clubs play on blue tables.

The number of blue tables in Germany is increasing more and more, too.

How is the situation now, 10 years later? Did the numbers of blue tables still increase in Germany? Worldwide, there is a big majority of blue tables!

Sure, more and more blue tables also in germany!

Are there only blue and green tables allowed or is there no special rule about the color, so that also red or black tables would be allowed for official matches and tournaments?

I haven't played on a green table in ages. Everything's blue here, the tables, the velvet, the moon...and I'm blue, too, at times..

I am happy, we are playing now also on blue tables.

Today we had our club meeting an 70:30 choosed in an election to change to blue tables. Only the older players wanted to stay with green, but all younger players decided to use blue tables in the future.
Now we order 6 tables for the matches in blue colour, whilst we are using the other green tables for the practise. And next year we will order 6 more blue tables.

I think sure only blue and green is allowed. I never saw in leagues or tournaments another colour than this ones.

This is definitely wrong!
There are no restrictions on the color of the table.
The only requirement is that the table must have a dark and dull finish.
