Hi
i'm not that tall so i can't reach the net. so how am i supposed to return and use a drop shot or flick and is the ball considered out if it hits the pole where you assemble the net?
Thanks

Hi Vinesh,
You are allowed to move around to the side of the table. You will also find that it is really difficult for your opponent to hit the ball short enough so that the second bounce won't reach you.
If the ball hits the net post and then goes onto the table, the ball is still in.

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.
