Rules
I have two cases to propose during a match:
Case 1 you serve a ball and notice while serving that the ball is broken. Is this a let or do you play out the point?
Case 2 a ball is broken during a rally. Is this a let or do you play out the point?
Hi Rick,
If you serve a ball and notice while serving that the ball is broken. If you notice that the ball is broken during the rally players will usually put their hand up while continuing to hit the ball. Usually both players will notice it and stop the rally. The umpire will usually call a let.
Do you ever get annoyed by how long your opponents take between points? How long are you allowed to take between points? These are the question that we will discuss and answer in this video.

Thanks Alois. I have two more cases to ask about.
Case 3. If you or your opponent hit a really hard shot to end a rally and you think that you broke the ball with the last shot do you replay the point?
Case 4. If neither you or your opponent realized that the ball broke in the previous rally but you pick up the ball and notice that it is broken do you need to replay the previous point?
Hi Rick,
In case 3 you wouldn’t reply the point because it didn’t effect the outcome of the rally. There same would apply for Case 4
