Is it permitted to stamp with my foot on the ground while serving? This to disguise the spin or no spin of my serve?

Hi Bingdong,

You are allowed to stamp however not if it is to deliberately disguise the serve.  However, I haven't seen anyone called for this for a very long time.

Doubles Serving Rules

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.
