hello Alois i wanted to ask some questions,

1. what if the ball does not touches the racket and touches the ground at the time of serving?

2. what if the ball  does not touches the racket but we catch it in our hand ?

Hi Sonia,

As soon as you throw the ball up it is in play so it is your responsibility to hit it correctly on the table.

If you miss the ball or you catch it again it is your opponent's point.

Hitting the Ceiling

When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.
