I am aware that the bat must be left at the table at the end of each game during a match. However can a player take a sponge and or water or cleaning agent to the bat at the table and clean/wipe it to gain more spin for the next game?

Hi Gus,

Yes you can take something to the bat to clean it.

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.
