Wearing a glove

Rules

Brian Lei Asked 14 years ago

Can a player wear a glove on his bat hand?

Hi Brian,

I've personally never seen a player wear a glove but I don't believe there are any rules against it. Is there a particular reason you ask? Did you want to wear one to protect your hand or is one of your opponents wearing one?

We did have a similar question a while back titled Michael Jackson of Table Tennis

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.
