Rules
Deepak H.R Asked 12 years ago
Sir,
I wanted to know if the serve, the one you executed in the Ping Skills trick serve video (at 0:40), was a let,for:
| 2.09.01.05.01 | after touching the receiver's court returns in the direction of the net; |
| 2.09.01.05.02 | comes to rest on the receiver's court; |
thus says the ittf hand book.
Thanking you in anticipation

Hi Deepak,
This rule is only referring to players in a wheelchair. So for standing players it is perfectly OK to do this serve.

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.

So why there is not any player doing it
Hi Yasir,
At the higher level, the ball travels too slowly and a good player will be able to step around and make a strong shot against it.
