The ball is served diagonally (starting with the right-hand service-square), and points can only be scored by the side that serves. Players on each side must let the ball bounce once before volleys are allowed. There is a seven-foot no-volley zone on each side of the net, to prevent “spiking” The server continues to serve, alternating service courts, until he or she faults.
The first side scoring eleven points and leading by at least two points wins. Pickle-ball can be played with singles or doubles.
Matches will consist of three games played to 11. First team to 11 wins the game. You do not need to win by two. Scores are capped at 13.
Warm-up time will be included in the match time. The match should take roughly 1 hour to complete. If games have not been completed with 10 minutes left in the 1 hour time slot allotted for each match, games shall switch to rally scoring. In rally scoring, teams score a point regardless of which team is serving. The entire official USA Pickleball rule book can be found here.
