Ball Cracking

Rules

Matthew Fisher Asked 13 years ago

Hey,

just wondering what would happen if a ball were to crack during a rally?

Thanks

Matt

Hi Matt,

If it is noticed by the umpire he should call a let and replay the point. If not, you just need to play on.

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.

if it is unnoticed and we stop there then what will happen.

If both players agree to stop the point in the middle of the point it should also be a let.
