HI ,I wonder if it is invalid serve if you serve on the opponent's white border.

Hi Hampus,

The white line is in so if you serve the ball and it hits the while line it is still in.

The only reasons they have the white line is so that it is easier to see the end of the table.

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.
