Hitting zone
Rules
Hoàng Trọng Tấn Hoàng Asked 7 years ago
Hi sir
If the ball hits any parts of body or my head and returns to my opponent's side, whose point is that?

Hi Hoang,
Up to the wrist is part of the racket. So if it hits your hand and goes back then it is still in play. If it hits any other part of your body it is out and your opponent gets the point.

unless of course the ball hits your body off the table right? like my head would have to be over the line of the table in order for my opponent to get the point right? and of course this is for when your opponent misses your side of the table.
Yes that is right.
