I've tried to draw a little diagram below to explain this, so I hope it works! Ok, so you're playing table tennis with 4 people (A, B, C & D). Two players face each other on opposite sides of the net (A & C). Two others stand next to the net (B & D). A hits the ball to C and moves round the table in a clockwise direction, so he ends up where B is. B moves round to where C is. C, meanwhile has hit the ball and moves round to where D is. And D is moves round to where A began, hits the ball and moves round again........ Each player gets a turn at hitting the ball by moving around the table. It's for a translation, French to English. The French call it 'table tournante' (turning table) but I don't know if English speakers would understand what that means. Thank you!!
