Coach,

My friend told me that when I am serving I must throw the ball up high. Is this correct?

Hi Chee,

Your friend is correct. The rules state that when you are serving you must throw the ball up at least 6 inches.

If you hit the ball and it lands on the net camp on your opponents side, is it in or out?
