Hi Chin Peng,

When you hit the ball it has to be behind the end line of the table. Your bat can swing past the end line before or after that.

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.
