Pickleball blends elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. It’s easy to start, fun at every level, and brilliant for all ages. You can play singles or doubles on a compact court with paddles and a perforated plastic ball.
Starter kit
- 1 paddle per player
- 2–3 balls (indoors: yellow usually)
- Comfy trainers with indoor soles
Quick Rules (Beginner-Friendly)
1) Scoring
Games usually go to 11 points, win by 2. Only the serving side scores points.
2) Serving
Serve underhand to the opposite diagonal court. Contact below the waist. A drop serve is allowed.
3) Double-Bounce Rule
After the serve, the ball must bounce once on each side before anyone can volley.
4) The Kitchen
The 7ft Non-Volley Zone (the “kitchen”) near the net: you can’t volley with your feet in it or on the line.
5) Faults
Hitting out, into the net, volleying in the kitchen, or missing the double-bounce are common faults.
6) Format
Most play is doubles. Rotate serves right court → left court while your team is scoring.
