Rule
Two-bounce Rule
A serve must land in the diagonally opposite service court on the opponent’s side of the net.The serve receiver must allow the ball to bounce once before returning the ball to the server’s side of the net. Once the receiver has returned the ball over the net, the serving side must also allow the ball to bounce once before returning the ball to the non-serving side. This is known as the two-bounce rule.After the first two returns, either side may volley the ball—that is, return it before it bounces. The ball can never bounce more than once before it is returned. No player may volley the ball while standing in the non-volley zone or touching any of the lines around the non-volley zone or “kitchen”.
Score of Play
A server continues to serve, alternating between the right and left service courts until their team commits a fault.Pickleball is usually played to a score of 11. The winning team must win by two points or play continues until one team wins by two.Tournament games may be played to 11, 15 or 21 points with players rotating sides when either team reaches 6, 8 or 11 points respectively.
