Hi Zia,

Th table was designed in imperial measurements.  It is 9 feet by 5 feet and 2 ft 6 inches off the ground.

These are the measurements in the rule book.

The upper surface of the table, known as the playing surface, shall be rectangular, 2.74m long and 1.525m wide, and shall lie in a horizontal plane 76cm above the floor.

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.
