Hitting your fingers

Rules

Lance Wells Asked 9 years ago

When you play a stroke and the ball hits not only your bat but your fingers and still goes in does it count as a valid return or do you lose the point?

Hi Lance,

Up to your wrist is considered to be part of your bat. So even if the ball hits both your finger and the bat it is still in.

Touching the Table

Are you allowed to touch the table during play? The only thing that isn't allowed to touch the table is your free hand. You leg, elbow, playing hand, and even your bat are allowed to. You are not allowed to move the table however.
