Hi Alois

I was wondering is there such thing as a second serve.  Just say if I served the ball it hit the net and it went over will that be the other persons point do I have to serve it again.

Hi Enoch,

This is called a "Let".  You never lose a point for serving a let so even if you serve 10 lets in a row it is still a let and you need to serve again.

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.
