Jay Bird Asked 11 years ago

Our rec room has a beam about 12 feet above the table, every once in a while a ball will hit the beam or go over it and land on the table, question is " if ball hits beam is the point lost or a do over from hindrance?

If ball passes over the beam onto the table ... is it playable ?

Thanks you guys ...

Hi George,

If the ball hits anything other than the table it is out of play so that would be the end of the point.  If it manages to go through the beams then it is play on.

Hope this helps.
