Rules
When Serve can the ball touch the net ?
Hi Kai,
If the ball touches the net and goes over correctly after that it is called a let. You stop the point and replay the point. You never lose a point for serving a let, even if you do 10 in a row.
When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.
