The ball should be hit with two hands, although sometimes it is necessary to hit with one hand and the player would not be out. The ball must be hit after the first bounce. Sometimes players hit the ball before it bounces and they would not be out. Strategically, the best-played balls are hit after the bounce. This is permitted.
Balls are to be hit so they are between the knees and the head of the receiver.
This rule is for serves and all play. All players must remain inside the box. No plays from outside any box. The ball must be played in front of the body, little fingers touching or thumbs touching on the underside of the ball.
