| Pickleball
is a simple paddle game, playing
a special perforated slow-moving
ball over a tennis type net, on a
badminton-sized court. |
|
The ball is served underhand,
without bouncing it from the court, and is
served diagonally to the opponent's service
zone. Pickleball Rules staet points are scored
by the serving side only and occur when the
opponent faults (fails to return the ball,
hits the ball out of bounds, etc.). The server
continues to serve, altering service courts,
until the server faults. A game is won by
the first side to reach eleven (11) points
but will continue until won by a two point
margin.
