Can I catch the ball when serving?

Rules

Oliver Asked 14 years ago

If you toss the ball up, can you catch it again and perform the serve again or does the serve start when you toss it up and cannot be repeated?

Hi Oliver,

The serve starts as soon as the ball leaves the hand so if you catch it again you lose the point.
