Table Tennis made its debut in Olympics during the 1988 edition in Seoul with men's and women's singles and doubles. The 2008 Games in Beijing saw men's and women's singles and team events.
International Table Tennis Federation was founded in 1926 and is one of the largest governing bodies of the sport.
