Types of Badminton Serve There are four (4) types of badminton serve: Low Serve High Serve Flick Serve Drive Serve
Low Serve The low serve is serve that is played gently over the net to land at the front of your opponent’s service court, near the short service line.

High Serve The high serve is played powerfully upwards, so that the shuttlecock travels very high and falls almost vertically downwards at the back of the receiver’s service court.

Flick Serve The flick serve is also played upwards, but much more shallowly than the high serve. The idea is to deprive the opponent of time, forcing him to hit the shuttlecock when it’s behind his body.

Drive Serve The drive serve is played flat and fast towards the back of the receiver’s service court, passing low over the net. The drive serve is considered an attacking serve.
