Hi Samuel,

The glue rule has changed in the last few years.  The rule on hiding serve also started a few years ago.

Games to 11 started about 10 years ago.  I don't have exact dates.  Perhaps someone with a better memory than mine can help.

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.
