when I have the ball in the palm of my hand, my hand and the ball must be between the two sidelines?
if they have to be between the sidelines when the ball is thrown up, the ball can leave the sidelines?
thanks

Hi Alex,
You don't need to have your hand between the sidelines. It just needs to be behind the end line or the imaginary extension of that.
The toss has to be nearly vertical.

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.

but players when They sack, throw the ball up with effect ...
and hand, need not have it between the sidelines, but the ball??
and if I sack, the ball, then , can leave the sidelines?
Thanks
Hi Alex,
I am not sure what you mean by effect.
After you hit the ball it can leave by the sidelines, it doesn't have to go out of the end line.
