Is the ball still in play if it bounces from your opponent's court back over the net into your court without your opponent touching the ball?

Hi Peter,

No, the point s finished.  The ball has to be hit before it comes back so it is your point.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
