Height service

Hassan Turi Asked 6 years ago

jDuring service my opponent hits his part of table very hard with ball that it crosses net very high, jumps into my part of table and touches my head if i am standing straight. Is this service legal? Height of ball from net when it crosses the net is almost 1 meter.

Hi Hassan,

Yes that is a legal serve.  As long as he is throwing the ball up off his hand correctly.
