Contact of the ball with the raquet during the serve
Rules
Oleksandr Borysov Asked 5 years ago
Could you please clarify if it is the only touch/hit contact that raquet has with the ball during the serve or the ball can roll over the surface?

Hi Oleksandr,
You have to hit the ball with your bat. If it accidentally hits the surface twice then that is alright but you aren't allowed to deliberately roll the ball on the surface of the bat.

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.
