Toweling Rule

Rules

 Is there a rule that doesn't allow a player to tuck a small towel in their waistband for keeping the hands & grip dry. It would make sense and eliminate the toweling rule.

Hi Phillip,

I think the only issue is that it will become uncomfortable while you are playing.

Hitting the Ceiling

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.
