At minute 3:10, on the ATP, he says you can have your paddle cross the plane of the net if you contact the ball. That is true, but that contact must be before your paddle crosses the plane. I am sure that is what he meant to say.

For the last rule , if you hit the volley behind the kitchen when can you step into the kitchen? After your opponent makes contact with the ball?
@mca10spro2 ай бұрын
No, it's not after your opponent makes contact with the ball. The rule is that you have to maintain momentum. This is usually called on a shot where the point is ended. However, it also applies when the ball comes back. This is where it is going to be subjective. You might think you maintained momentum before stepping into the NVZ (aka the kitchen), but a referee could tell you otherwise. Once momentum is maintained then you can step into the kitchen for the next ball. How long that is depends on the situation. This is why it can be very subjective. To avoid conflict make sure you are on balance and kill your forward momentum before stepping into the NVZ / kitchen.

You just have to clearly re-establish your balance first

What if your momentum is taking you forward, but you hit the return before stepping into the kitchen, on your second step, you enter the kitchen, you can step back out and that’s valid right?

@@dani6194I think I found the answer. Your momentum cannot take you into the kitchen at any point of your shot. You have to hit the ball and then be “set” and then you can enter the kitchen. If your momentum carries you in at any point, technically it’s a fault.

What if you run to hit it, you hit it and it double bounces so your point but your momentum makes you go into the kitchen after the second bounce. I’ve heard that the play is dead or over so you can fall into it and I’ve also heard that it’s a fault.
@MichelleH45Ай бұрын
If your momentum takes you into the kitchen, you’ve committed a fault. It does not matter that they missed the ball on the other side by double-bouncing. You faulted, their ball.

Why is it that you can start in the kitchen but you cannot hit the ball and fall into the kitchen? How do they tell the difference?

You can’t volley the ball and fall in but if the ball has bounced you can continue into the kitchen just fine.

Why can't you fall into the kitchen after hitting the ball on a fly ? Because that's the rule in the rule book.

@@elukea Got it - so the important clarification is whether your momentum takes you in, vs walking in on purpose. When you say it that way it is kind of oddly specific, but it makes sense
