Change of ends
Rules
Sourav Mehra Asked 13 years ago
I have a question.Why do the players in this match change sides in the 5th set ?Is it because it is the last set?

Hi Sourav,
That is a rule of the game. IN the last set of a match when the first player reaches 5 points the players change ends. This is to make sure that both players get the same conditions in case there is something that favours one end.

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.
