Rules
Hi, Is a shot like this in this video legal? If yes so why didn't the umpire Consider that point?
Hi David,
The shot is really does take a lot of touch. You can see even she was pleased with it. She gave a little smile. The ball lands on the other teams side so it is in. The others need to have hit the ball before it came back for the rally to continue.
Question actions
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.
