Jeff and Alois,

Is there a time limit in which the ball must be served?

Hi Andrew,

There is no time limit but it just says that play should be continuous.  It is a lot to do with the umpires discretion.

After every 6 points the players are allowed a brief stop to use their towels.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
