Hi Kai,

If the ball touches the net and goes over correctly after that it is called a let.  You stop the point and replay the point.  You never lose a point for serving a let, even if you do 10 in a row.

Doubles Serving Rules

In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.
