The player in square 4 serves by bouncing the ball into another player's square.

That player must hit the ball, letting it bounce once, into any other square.

A player is out if the ball bounces twice in their square, they hit it out of bounds, or they mishit.

The player who is out goes to the back of a waiting line, and everyone shifts up a square.
