Switching hands
Rules
Patrick Gonsalves Asked 13 years ago
Hi Coach, I was wondering, Is it legal to switch the racquet to the other hand and hit the ball during a point or between points or at any other time during the game.

Hi Patrick,
Yes it is legal to do it. You will see Timo Boll do it sometimes when he is really out of position and can't reach the ball.

Hitting the Ceiling
When the ball hits the ceiling the point is over. You must hit the ball directly back onto the table otherwise you lose the point. In International tournaments the roof needs to be at least 5 metres above the playing surface but in local competitions you might often encounter much lower ceilings.
