Serve bouncing more than once
Rules
Santosh More Asked 13 years ago
Is it a foul or a good serve if I serve and the second bounce of my serve on my opponents side will fall on the white line?

HI Santosh,
The serve is allowed to bounce as many times as you like on your opponents side if he let it go. In fact a good service tactic is to try and serve it close to the net so that it is going to bounce a lot of times.

Dear Sir,
I am still confused I want to know when I serve the ball will bounce on my side first and second bounce on my opponents side. If that bounce will fall on a white end line then is it a legal serve or a foul?
Hi Santosh,
Sorry, I was confused. If the ball bounces on the white line, it is a good serve... play on...

thats call ''lucky point'' if the ball touches the white line at the edge of the table.

Hi Alois,
If the serve bounces on the opponent side of the table then without bouncing twice nor my opponent hitting it, spins back to my side of the table. Whose point is it.

Hi Alois, In light of the above, can you please clarify this rule regarding a LET call?
