How High Must I Throw The Ball When Serving?
Rules
Brad Price Asked 13 years ago
I know that you have to throw the ball up when serving, is there a minimum height requirment that you have to throw the ball up? People are saying that my serves are illegal because i throw them too low.

Hi Brad,
You need to throw the ball up at least 16cm (approximately 6 inches or the height of the net).

We look at the difficulties faced by a left handed receiver facing a right handers serve and also a right handed receiver facing a left handers serve. What rules protect the receiver?

If you throw the ball higher, your serve is going to be more spinny...

Thanks Julio for that extra tip and of course thanks Alois for the reply.
