Heavy backspin back to my side of the table

Rules

Hello!

If you use a heavy backspin stroke that hits your opponent side of the table, then comes back towards you, bounces on your side of the table, would it be your point (double bounce score), or would you have to return the ball again? Thank you in advance.

Hi Andy,

That is your point.  It is up to your opponent to hit the ball before it comes back onto your side.

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.
