    This the best 16 minutes I've spent in my quest to learn pickleball and share my new favorite sport with friends! Great job Lisa in demonstrating the REASONS why the rules are the way they are to make the game more fair! Everyone talks about the rules, but very few say why the game was made that way. I've never heard it explained so succinctly as you've done here, bravo!!!

    Wow, my family started playing this game on tennis courts when I was a kid. We didn't play tennis, but we used the wood beach paddles and instead of this ball, we used tennis balls. The rules were almost the same, and we used the same space on the tennis court. We also played in doubles. This allowed the older people to play, and we weren't shooting tennis balls out of the court, due to never playing tennis in our lives.

      @@thomasjedreski7885 unlike in tennis where the server gets 2 faults, in pickleball each server only gets 1 attempt to land a good serve. its kind of like innings in baseball or something. its like this - if you are on the serving team, the first server (#1) will continue to serve and score until their is a fault against their team. then the second server (#2) will do the same. in theory the person who starts the game could be the only server of the game if they score enough points in a row ;)
