Hitting your fingers
Rules
Joshua Escalada Asked 13 years ago
Hi Alois and Jeff, is it legal if you accidentaly hit the ball with your thumb in your forehand or your index finger with your backhand?
Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago
Hi Joshua,
Yes now it is legal to do this. If the ball hits anywhere up to your wrist it is still a good hit. Now it can even hit both the finger and the bat and go over and be a good hit as long as it is unintentional.

Side of Table
If the ball hits any part of the top of the table then the ball is in play. If it only hits the side of the table then it is out.

will it be considered illegal if i hit the ball with my palm?
You have to have the bat in your hand and the ball can only hit your hand once. This is quite difficult.
