Side change
Rules
A E Asked 5 years ago
Hi Alois and Jeff
I was wondering what to do if my opponent forces me onto his side in the middle of a rally, I have seen it been done before. Is it a fault if someone goes on the other side? Or do we keep playing, and if so what should I do if we keep playing?
Thanks!

Hi Shaurya,
You are allowed to move around the table. You just aren't allowed to touch the net or interfere with your opponent.
