SERVICE
Is played gently over the net to land at the front of your opponents service court, near the short service line. It’s important that this serve passes low over the net.
LOW SERVE
Is played powerfully upwards, so that the shuttlecock travels very high and falls almost vertically downwards at the back of the receiver’s service court. High serves are used frequently in singles, but never in doubles.
