Every time i do my smash i go pass the net for more power so the opponent can not block it but is it allowed to pass by the net?

Hi Aj,

Yes you are allowed to go past the net as long as you don't touch it or interfere with your opponent.

Hitting the Ceiling

When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.
