Losing on a serve
Rules
Thomas Parker Asked 11 years ago
If the score is point to something and you serve it off the table can you lose, I have heard that it is not possible to lose on a serve but I guess it has happened on the Olympics. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Hi Thomas,
If you make a mistake with your serve you do lose a point straight away. In Table Tennis you don't get a second chance with your serve.
That is one of the reasons that it is important to practice your serves a lot during your training.
It even happens at the Olympics sometimes.
