Ball in play or out

Rules

Alois we have a table in our works canteen which has a low roof.  My question is this, if a shot is played that hits the ceiling and then lands on the opposing side is it considered a point or a foul stroke.

Cheers

Hi Paul,

As soon as it touches something else such as the roof it is considered out and the player that hit the ball loses a point.

Whose point is it if I serve the ball with backspin so it bounces back into the net? We explain the rule in this video.
