Considered completed when the ball completely crosses the vertical plane of the net or touches a block.  Ball mark - The disturbance or movement of the sand created on the court surface by the contact of the ball with the sand.

NOTE - For the 2003 and 2004 season, SWATCH service awards were presented to players competing in event medal matches with the fastest serve. Starting in 2005, the leaders were tracked per center court match per event with only a player’s top serve for the season being used in compiling the SWATCH FIVB World Tour’stop servers.
