Legal points
Rules
Orel orelohana100 Asked 12 years ago
Hi coach.
Can you please make a video that show's legal and nonlegal points?
I saw in your Will see/Won't see video that you made a point(on the will see part)by getting the ball to the other side by bringing it under the net and i always have been told that that's a nonlegal point 'cos there is an "invisible continue of the net that the ball need's to go above" and i got really confused.
I want to know every way that the ball will hit the other side and it will be/won't be my point(including serves).
Thanks.

Hi Orel,
It is perfectly OK for the ball to go around the net. I definitely doesn't have to go over the net or an imaginary extension of that line.
We have a lesson on our Youtube channel on Essential Table Tennis Rules that will help you out.

Hitting the Ball on the Full
In this video we explain what happens when someone hits the ball before it bounces in a rally. This is also known as hitting the ball on the full. The point stop immediately when this happens but who's point is it? This depends on where the ball was hit. Watch the video to find out more.
