Spin my bat while serving

Rules

Can I randomise the rubber during the serve by spinning the bat fast just before hitting a ball tossed up? I cant see anything in the rules except it might be considered distraction?

Hi Stephen,

You are allowed to do that.  Might be better to know which side you are going to hit with though rather than making it totally random...

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.

thanks, if I cut the ball it doesnt matter which side I use but it makes a big difference to the back spin
