HOW TO PLAY
1
The serving team hits the ball underhand, bouncing it once before striking it into the diagonal service box.
2
Players return the ball over the net after it bounces once on their side, and may also use the surrounding glass walls in play.
3
A rally ends when the ball bounces twice, is hit out of bounds, or is not returned properly.

Points follow the same scoring pattern as tennis, counting up through a game.
5
Teams alternate serving each game, with server changing after every two points within a game.
6
The first team to win the required number of games takes the set, and the best-of-three sets wins the match.
