Returning the ball before bounce on the table
Rules
Mohan Reddy Asked 9 years ago
Hi!
Can I hit the ball before it hits the board on my side, I mean like a Volley shot in lawn tennis?

Hi Mohan,
This is not allowed. If the ball is over the table and you hit it before it bounces, you lose the point straight away.

Hitting the Ceiling
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.
