Throwing the ball up for service

Rules

alex fernandez Asked 12 years ago

in the service, when I throw the ball up, I can raise all that I want my hand? or I can not elevate my hand more than my head?

Hi Alex,

You can put your hand up as high as you want but the ball still has to raise 16cm from where it leaves your hand upwards.

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.
