USAPA has new rule changes for 2021.  Three main changes are:

• Drop serve allowable for serves.  Old serves are still ok, too.
• There are no "let" serves.  If a serve clips the net and the ball lands in, play it!
• You must see the ball out, to declare it out.

Here is the link - 77 pages of changes or clarifications.
