Flick/drop shot
Rules
vinesh reddy Asked 13 years ago
Hi
i'm not that tall so i can't reach the net. so how am i supposed to return and use a drop shot or flick and is the ball considered out if it hits the pole where you assemble the net?
Thanks

Hi Vinesh,
You are allowed to move around to the side of the table. You will also find that it is really difficult for your opponent to hit the ball short enough so that the second bounce won't reach you.
If the ball hits the net post and then goes onto the table, the ball is still in.
