hey there TT masters I have a question, does the ball have to go over the net in order to be my point or my opponent's point? Or can it go on the side of the table and bounce on my opponent's table and be my point??

thanks.

Hi Alex,

The ball can go around the net as well.  This can happen if your opponent hits the ball out wide and you hit it from outside the line of the table.

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.

How can I play a shot UNDER the net?

If you let the ball drop low to the ground that is also possible.
