Melvyn HTS Asked 7 years ago
Ok so,I have a question, where in a serve
When I toss the ball and catch it with my toss hand afterwards despite the ball not land on the ground or finishing my stroke,I mean I catch a bad toss and no contact with the ball
Or
I make toss,make a movement(stroke) but stop in midway and catch the ball with my free hand
Someone told me they are considered as fault
So is it really consider as a fault?
I know in tennis,sometimes players made bad toss and catch the ball but it is not considered as fault

Hi Melvyn,
They are both a fault. As soon as the ball leaves your hand it is in play even if you don't swing at it.
