White Line

Rules

Mohammad Malik Asked 13 years ago

Is it ok if my serve bounces on the white line of the other court or do i re-serve?

Thanks,

Awaayl

Hi Awaayl,

The white line is part of the table so it is a good serve if it hits the white line.

The white line is just there to make it easier to see the end of the table.

Glad that we can help. You can also see a condensed version of the Rules of Table Tennis in our free lesson and then you will see there are links for PDF Table Tennis Rules Brochure. This is something that you can put up at school so that everyone can see the rules.
