    sometimes watching badminton games, the ref said the server is fault, mostly backhand.( i mean serving)... i can't figure out why even watching the replay...

    Somebody should be able to post a link to the official rules but the main things are racket head above waist, head of racket above handle, feet movment during serve, all faults...

    Also watch out for a "double-action."

    But the point of contact was below the waist.

    To answer the question: How do u serve?

    Answer: I serve into the net...most of the time :p
