hello Alois i wanted to ask some questions,

1. what if the ball does not touches the racket and touches the ground at the time of serving?

2. what if the ball  does not touches the racket but we catch it in our hand ?

Hi Sonia,

As soon as you throw the ball up it is in play so it is your responsibility to hit it correctly on the table.

If you miss the ball or you catch it again it is your opponent's point.
