Hi. Can you change your bat during a match?  In the middle of a game or inbetween games?

Hi Tim,

You are only allowed to change it if you damage it accidentally and can't play with it any more.

Otherwise you have to use the same bat for the whole match.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.

Is it the same for the match or the whole tournament?
