Who can call a let
Rules
Dale Martinez Asked 12 years ago
With no umpire available, can either player call a let?
In a professional match, can players call a let when the umpire doesn't?

Hi Dale,
There are no official rules for when there is no umpire available. However, usually both players can call a let in this situation.
In a professional match, only the umpire can call a let. Sometimes the player will put their hand up to indicated to the umpire and their opponent that they thought it was a let but really the umpire has to call a let before the point stops.

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.
