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.

Doubles Serving Rules

In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.
