Hi guys, during a point i hit a shot that tipped the net, bounced on top of the plastic side piece holding the net and spun back onto the table on the other side. I doubt I'll ever see THAT again but in case i do, how would you rule that ??

You guys rock,  George

Hi George,

That would be in.  The Net Post is considered part of the net so the bounce on the plastic support is just considered another bounce on the net.  As long as it then hits the table, it is in play.

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.
