Service toss

Rules

Rick Westelaken Asked 8 years ago

Hello, sometimes I toss the ball my service wrong in the air and then catch it and i don’t hit the ball or anything. Is that a point for the opponent ?

Greetings, Rick

Hi Rick,

Yes that is your opponent's point. As soon as it leaves the hand it is in play so you have to hit it.

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.
