The start of a game begins with a serve. The player standing in the right service court is always the first server, whether at the the beginning of a game or on a side-out. Before serving the server must call the score. A Pickleball serve can be hit underhanded from behind the baseline cross court into the opposing team’s service court. You can also drop the ball to bounce and serve. If the ball hits the net and lands in the play continues. The serve must clear the net. Sometimes the ball will hit the net but still land in the correct serving court. If the ball hits the net and lands in the kitchen, it is a fault.

Its a fun game that combines elements of tennis, badminton and table tennis. All ages can enjoy pickleball with it being a great introduction to racket skills for school kids and a wonderful game to extend people's racket playing careers. All of this in a lively social atmosphere. All you need to get started is a venue with a badminton court and some basic equipment. We will be happy to come along and introduce your group to the game. Come on what are you waiting for?
