The serve is made diagonally crosscourt and must land within the confines of the opposite diagonal court. Only one serve attempt is allowed (let serves are allowed).

While many people mark courts with blue painter's tape, we recommend green Frog Tape because it adheres better to the court and doesn't leave residue when removed.
