Mohammad Malik Asked 13 years ago

Can my ghost serve stop in the opponent's court?

Can It return to my court after bouncing in the opponent's court?

Is this serve legal because the rule say it can not stop in the opponent's court and is a let serve if it returns to my court after the second bounce 

thanks

Hi Mohammad,

Yes the serve is allowed to come back towards the net.

The rule you are describing is only for wheelchair players.

Yes this is also allowed as long as it bounces at least once on the other side of the table.
