Hi,

A friend told me that if you serve and the first bounce is hit on the white line, the serve would have to be served again is this true?

Hi Tri,

No that isn't a rule.  The white lines are all part of the top of the table and only there to help with sighting the ends.

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.

Though,being able to serve on the white lines purely could be an useful art,what do you think,Alois?
