If the ball still lands on the opponent's table after hitting the net during the service, the service is deemed invalid, and both parties will not score and serve again.

The ball must not touch anything before it is hit. 8. When the ball falls from the highest point of the throw, the server can hit the ball so that the ball first touches his own area, then goes over or around the net device, and then touches the receiver's area. In doubles, the ball should touch the right half of the server and the receiver. 9. From the start of the service until the ball is hit, the ball must always be above the table and outside the end line of the server, and it cannot be blocked by any part of the body or clothing of the server or his partner. 10. In the game, if the ball grazes the net (including the net column, net rope, and the clamp under the net), the ball falls on the opponent's table, including the edge (referring to the edge of the top surface of the table tennis table), it is regarded as a valid return shot; after the ball grazes the net, it does not fall on the opponent's table, but grazes the side of the table, which is regarded as invalid. 11. When hitting the ball, if the ball is hit below the wrist of the person holding the clap and falls on the opponent's table, it is an effective shot. 12. A back-to-back shot or a last-minute change of hands to hit the ball and land on the opponent's table was an effective shot. 13. When hitting the ball, touching the clothes before hitting the ball and falling on the opponent's table was an invalid shot, and the opponent scored. 14.

It is an invalid shot, and the opponent scores. 15. When hitting the ball, the racket accidentally fell on the table. The body cannot touch the table to pick up the racket. You must first touch the racket with your hand and then touch the table to pick up the racket (amateur competition depends on the rules). 16. When hitting the ball, the opponent's ball may go out of bounds and directly block or hit the ball in the space above the table. This is a foul and the opponent will be awarded 1 point. 17. Throwing the ball in the ring and off-stage was a foul. One warning and two fouls awarded the opponent one point. 18.
