1. Starting at the toss, the sidethat chooses to serve, names the 1st server. The side the chooses to receive, name the 1st receiver. Both these players begin in the right service box the score being 0-0 (Love all).

2. If the serving side wins the rally, (1-love), the server moves to the left box and continue the service. If the serving side wins again (2-love), the server moves to the right box and continues the service. This continues until the serving side loses the rally. If the score is an even number, the service will always come from the right service box. If the score is an odd number, the service will always be delivered from the left service box.

3. When the receiving side wins the rally (service over, 1-2), service is given to the player in the LEFT service box.

4. Note that the players only change boxes on the service side.

5. The pattern of service always follow the same sequence. A (server) B(teamate) X(teamate) Y receiver. The service pattern will always be A, Y, B, X, A, Y, B, X. If you are a player, you will always follow and be followed by the same player in the same order throughout the game. (servers/receives can be changed in game 2 and game 3 - so the order may be different if the order picked is different).

During the main part of a Badminton doubles rally, every part of the court is in.

However, the serve must fall into the 'short and fat' area diagonally opposite the server. The side tramlines are in, but the rear tramlines are out during the serve.

The service squares which run from the net to the center of the court. There are 3 positions to serve into these squares, the center tag, out wide and towards the body of your opponent. positioning your serve is key to set up your next stroke in the point.

What is a cut throat in tennis?

Not sure if this is the answer you're looking for, but I have played a form of Cutthroat Tennis many times. It requres 3 players, 1 person plays singles against the other 2 who play doubles. The singles player is the only one who serves and is played under the usual scoring system. The singles player has the entire (doubles) court to play to. But the doubles team plays into the singles court. If the singles player wins the game, he continues to serve until his serve is broken. It can be played to 6 games to win the set or to 10. If the doubles team breaks serve, the person in the ad court now becomes the singles player, the player in the deuce court plays ad and the 1st singles player now plays the deuce court. After every broken serve, it is rotated like that. First player to 6, or 10, wins.
