Hi,

When I serve in a doubles game, if the ball hits the net and lands on the 'wrong' (left) half on the opponents' side, is it a let or a foul?

Hi John,

That is a point to the receiving team because the ball lands on the wrong half.

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.
