White line rule
Rules
Tri Vu Asked 7 years ago
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.

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.

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