Underhand only - paddle must contact ball below waist level.

The paddle head must be below your wrist at contact.

You have to serve diagonally to the opposite service court.

Keep at least one foot behind the baseline when you serve.

There's also a "drop serve" option now where you can drop the ball and hit it after it bounces.
