If the ball bounces twice on the side of the person receiving the serve and he plays it how do you score that?

Hi Scott,

This would be the servers point.  Once the ball bounces twice the rally ends.  It doesn't matter what happens after that the point is already over.

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.
