5 RULES OF PICKLEBALL
When it comes to pickleball basics, there are a handful of rules to keep in mind when you're starting out.
RULE 1: "THE KITCHEN"
Probably the most notorious and – perhaps – fun thing about pickleball is the no-volley zone, more popularly referred to as "the kitchen". This is the lined box located seven feet off the net on both sides of the court and includes the line. That means that if you're standing on any part of the line of the kitchen, you're standing in the kitchen. The rules surrounding the kitchen are pretty important, so take heed!
RULE 2: THERE MUST BE ONE BOUNCE PER SIDE.
One of pickleball’s unique rules is the “Two Bounce Rule”. The ball must bounce at least once on each side of the court for every rally, for both the serve and the return of the serve. Once this has happened, either side can play the ball in the air or let it bounce.
RULE 3: YOU MUST SERVE AT THE BASELINE.
When serving the ball, you must serve it from the baseline, the back line of the court. Serve underhand and below the waistline, hitting the ball diagonally over the net and across the court. An interesting serving rule is that the ball can hit the net during a serve and is considered in play as long as it doesn't touch the kitchen and lands in the correct service court!
RULE 4: SERVES CANNOT LAND IN THE NO-VOLLEY ZONE.
When serving, the pickleball cannot land in the kitchen. This includes the demarcation line. Where a serve is in bounds if it lands on any line other than the kitchen, it is not in bounds if it lands on the line of the kitchen because even the line is considered to be a part of the kitchen. After the serve, of course, the ball can land in the kitchen.
RULE 5: THE GAME ENDS AT 11, 15, OR 21 POINTS.
A traditional pickleball game ends when one person or team reaches 11 points. However, the winner(s) has to win by at least two points. For example, if one person has 11 points but their opponent has 10, the game continues. Tournament games may be played to 15 or 21, also "win by 2" rules.
If a class is canceled due to inclement weather, the class or event will be rescheduled to a new date in the near future. If it is part of a series of classes a make up day will be scheduled during the current session.
If an instructor is unable to give a lesson, the student will be notified immediately and a make-up class will be given.
Make up classes will not be given for missed class (includes sick days, injury or vacation).
There will be no cash refunds.
