00:10 up in the air.
00:11 The ball must go up at least 16cm and the player can only hit it when it comes back
00:16 down.
00:20 Player is not allowed to hide the ball from their opponent with their arm or hand.
00:25 The ball must bounce off the table before passing over the net.
00:30 There are several techniques for making the ball move in different ways.
00:38 The top spin serve.
00:40 The idea is to give the ball lift by hitting it on the back so it has spin.
00:58 The back spin chop when the ball is hit underneath from back to front so it slows down by the
01:03 time it reaches its opponent.
