So, you have to play tennis on a kitchen table due to size issues? Is that what I am gathering here. Even @wicked_witch I bet plays on a regulation court. Though, I do understand your vertical limitations.
It makes sense because having to look through a net that is a towering 3 feet tall on a normal court would be disorienting I would imagine. No need for extra disadvantages when you play sports.
My question is how do you get up on the table to play? Do your opponents stand on the ground or also stand on your kitchen table? I have just so many questions. I have it pictured in my head.
A roll of paper towels across the middle as a net and electric tape to mark the court. Is this right so far? Do you turn the ceiling fan on to simulate outdoor conditions or maybe spray the table down with the kitchen faucet for some added realism?
I eagerly await your reply and further information.

  @PrettyPriya what if he falls, though? That is a big drop for him 🙀

  @Wicked_Witch I think paper towels could double as a barrier around the table. Keep the little guy contained.

  @PrettyPriya great idea! We just can’t stack them up too high or we won’t be able to see him

I used to be as I would play it at summer camps when I was younger but haven’t played in a while. I did get tired of chasing the ball after points. 😂

I haven't played in a long time. I was probably mediocre and now I will maybe be a challenge for a 5 year old.

  I warn you. I’m really good at the double ball-to-wall thing. I can do it really fast with two paddles. I learned of this talent at age 8. I’m hopeless at video games, but hand-eye coordination, watch out!
