1. A player must toss the ball 6” high before striking it. It must remain visible above and behind the table at all times. Simply dropping the ball or hitting it out of your hand is not acceptable and creates an unfair advantage by making it easier to generate more spin.
2. Table Match Protocol – A player can play in any table they wish, by asking to play the winner. The winner of the match is allowed to remain at the table or may choose to allow the loser to stay. This protocol ensures that: everyone gets table access, can play a variety of different people and skill levels, and promotes building friendships. Generally matches are best of 3 or 5 games, with each game set for 11 points. To request being the next to play on a particular table, you simply ask and wait for you turn.
