Bottom Bracket

Is it ok to heve a bit of a play in bottom bracket? I had new Record bottom bracket instelled rescently and noticed that it has a bit of a play.Not much but can be felt when pulling on crankarms.
No noise, cracking but just a little play.It is Record carbon bottom bracket and Ti. frame.
thanx

Play is not good. Any movement will accelerate the wearing out of the bearings.
