Historical rulebook: not the current rules. The current rules are here (USHA Four-Wall Rulebook, as of 26 January 2025).

The server may stand anywhere in the service zone to serve. The server’s partner must stand in one of the service zone boxes until the served ball passes the short line. Each partner on the serving team gets to serve until they lose their serve. When both partners have lost serve, the team is out, and the receiving team gains service. The one exception: only one partner on the teams that begins each game serving is allowed service.
