How to play pickleball

Your first game: the court, serve, score and flow of play.

Volley serve, drop serve, foot faults, spin and where older rules pages can mislead you.

Serving, bounces, the kitchen, net contact and what happens after a fault.

Doubles, singles and the 0-0-2 call without the headache.

When you can step in, when you cannot volley and why momentum matters.

Serving, bounces, line calls and the habits that make games smoother.

What each number means, what it does not mean and which one matters when you enter an event.
