Hi Calvin,

You have to have one side Red and the other side Black if you are playing in any formal competition.

It doesn't matter which side you have the colours.  This is a proper rule of table tennis.

Let us know if you have any other questions with it.

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.
