Double Hit

morris kaplan Asked 13 years ago

Hi Alois,

i am incredulous! Anytime the ball hits both the paddle and the hand it is a double hit!

is it not? it does not matter which is hit first.

if you are right, i have been playing by the wrong rules.

we are talking ittf right?

thanx

Hi Morris,

The rules were changed recently. Now if the ball hits both your hand and the bat and it is not intentional it is play on. These are the ITTF rules now.

Take a look at our video response to the question Hand or Finger Foul.
