Rule regarding a "carry"during a stroke
Rules
Phillip Simmons Asked 8 years ago
Hello coaches, Phillip again with another question. I can't find any rule that covers a "carry" during a return or stroke. The "carry" I am asking about is similiar to the "carry" in tennis where the ball is carried on the racket for a moment rather than a rebound off the racket. I saw one today for the first time. So is it legal?

So it's legal?
