Rules

Abubakar Sadiq Sani Asked 6 years ago

Good day Coach,

Can an ITTF approved rubber which is totally wearied away without any damage be allowed for international competition.

Thank you

Hi Abubakar,

As long as the properties of the rubber are not altered greatly I think it would be fine.

The regulations state that:

2.4.7 The racket covering shall be used without any physical, chemical or other treatment.

2.4.7.1 Slight deviations from continuity of surface or uniformity of colour due to accidental damage or wear may be allowed provided that they do not significantly change the characteristics of the surface.

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.
