Get your power saw and cut one of your 6 inch long boards to 5 inch so it will fit the table. Then glue your 14 inch boards to each other with wood glue and let it dry for about 1-3 hours or until completely dry.

Put your net across the middle of the table as shown and you can use hot glue or wood glue to glue it down (I used hot glue) and then paint the white lines down the middle of the table (like the picture) and on the outside edges.
