Rules
If I am preparing to serve a backhand serve, and as I bring my right hand across, my right hand hits my left hand and dislodges the ball off my palm, is this a fault?
I have not intentionally projected the ball up, nor have I swung at the ball.
Your wisdom please.
Regards
Pieter

Hi Pieter,
I think it would be a fault as you have started the service action even though the ball has not been projected off the hand.

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.
