Ball hits debris on the table
Rules
Tim Challener Asked 6 years ago
During play if a ball hits some unseen debris on the table and bounces strangely should the point be replayed or does the point stand? If replayed who must declare the bounce unfair: both players and/or umpire?

Hi Tim,
This is the umpires call. Usually they will let it go and the point will stand. Hard to show that the ball did hit the debris on the table.

Doubles Serving Rules
In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.
