It depends on the rules set you are using.  This is legal in all USAV
indoor and outdoor competition except outdoor 6's (where the ball must
be contacted on or above the knee).

Under USAV rules, you cannot block the serve.  You can only attack a
serve provided some part of the ball is below the top of the net at
the moment of contact.
