Hi In singles game, if I serve, my opponent returns the ball. Do I have to let the ball hit the floor 1st before returning it? When I play double that is the rule. Is this rule the same in singles?

We do something similar when we only have 3 players available. The side with only 1 player ALWAYS serves. The side with 2 players MUST return the ball to the half of the court that the serve was made from, so the server only has to defend half the normal court. If a point is not made, the players rotate 1 position in a clockwise manner so that there is a new server. Scoring is similar to the one in this video, but it consists of 3 numbers: the server's score being first, the even side player's score next, and the odd side player's score last.

When we have only 2 players,, we use half court as well but cross half courts. That way we simulate the doubles play. When you win on your serve, you switch to the other half cross court and so on.

In skinny singles is the whole kitchen in play or do you need a line to cut the kitchen in half?

@BetterPickleball Жыл бұрын

Hey Bruce, we pretend the center line runs all the way to the net, cutting the NVZ in half.

Confusing with even and odd

@BetterPickleball Жыл бұрын

Hey Penna, scoring is usually hard at first. In singles just remember that when your score is an even number you should be on the right and when it's an odd number you should be on the left.
