jDuring service my opponent hits his part of table very hard with ball that it crosses net very high, jumps into my part of table and touches my head if i am standing straight. Is this service legal? Height of ball from net when it crosses the net is almost 1 meter.

Hi Hassan,

Yes that is a legal serve.  As long as he is throwing the ball up off his hand correctly.
