At the beginning of the game and when the score is even, the server serves from the right service court. When it is odd, the server serves from the left court. The server must hit the shuttle into the opposite service court. In doubles this extends to the outside rectangular space. Once the shuttle is hit after a serve it may be returned into any portion of the other end of the court marked by the outside edges of the boundary lines. If the serving side wins a rally, the serving side scores a point and the same server serves again from the alternate service court.
If the receiving side wins a rally, the receiving side scores a point. The receiving side becomes the new serving side. The players do not change their respective service courts until they win a point when their side is serving. If players commit an error in the service court, the error is corrected when the mistake is discovered. After the serve is played by the receiving team, either partner may make a play on the shuttlecock during consecutive returns. Rule 7: Faults.
If in serving, the shuttlecock is struck above the server’s waist. If at the serve, the shuttlecock falls into the wrong receiving court. If the server’s and receiver’s feet are not within the boundaries of their serving court and receiving court, respectively.
If the partner of the receiver takes the serve. If a player touches the net with his/her racquet, person, or clothes. If the shuttlecock is struck in return before it has crossed the net to his/her side. (The follow-through may break the plane of the net.) Rule 8: General Rules. You should not serve until the opponent is ready, but if he/she attempts to return the serve, he/she is considered ready and play continues. If in serving, you miss the shuttlecock, you may serve again providing your racquet did not make any contact during the attempt. Birdies that hit the net as they cross during play are good and should be played.
If, in serving, the shuttle touches the net, it is a “let” provided the service is otherwise good and the birdie is served again. Birdies that fall on the line are considered good.
