A fault at the moment of the service hit is sanctioned ahead of the opponents' positional fault.

When the service only becomes faulty after a correct hit, the positional fault happened first and is sanctioned.

Standing grouped so that the hit and flight are hidden is a collective screen, and a service over it is a fault.

An early service comes before the hit, a foot fault at the hit, and the other two only after it.

Faults after a correct hit come later than a positional fault, which is therefore the one counted.
