Rules
Hi guys,
I know this have come up before on the site - whether or not it is legal to stamp during the service action.
I was wondering if it is still legal and do you have a copy of the official law regarding this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Jasha,
There is no specific rule now but if it is seen as deliberately distracting your opponent then the umpire may call you. However, you never really see it called by the umpires now.

✅ What the ITTF rules say about hiding your serve
✅ Why hidden serves are illegal and how umpires enforce the rule
✅ What you can (and can’t) do when serving in a match
Mastering a legal serve is key to fair play and improving your game. Watch now to make sure you’re not unintentionally breaking the rules! 🏓
