Rules
What are the rules for switching or Changing of hands while playing table tennis like if I cannot reach the ball with my right hand can I use my left hand instead?
Hi Tejas,
Yes you can switch hands. You must have the bat in your hand when you hit the ball but it can be in either hand.
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.
