Wait, why do you say who the server is? Who cares if someone is first or second server, like what affect does it have on the actual score? Seems really stupid
Im confused… so only the server can score, the defender must prevent that. If the the defender prevents the score then it’s their turn to serve? Im pretty confused…
Only the serving team has a chance of scoring. If they lose while it is there serve the score remains the same. So if the score starts 0-0 and because it is the first serve of the game the side serving only gets 1 serving opportunity. So the person serving would say 0-0-2. If they win then the score would be 1-0-2. If they lose the next rally then the other team would start serving and they would say 0-1-1. (They say their score first and since the last thing they won they were not serving so they did not get a point for that). Now they win the next rally and the server would say 1-1-1. If they lose the next rally the next server on the same side would start serving and say 1-1-2. So even though the other team won the rally the neither team scored a point. They simply forced the 2nd server to take their turn.
Recently, I was asked why, at the start of the game, the serving team only gets one serve? Nobody has given me a definitive answer. Standard answer given is usually "thats how the game is played". Thanks.
Good question! Since you can only win points on your serve, the starting team would have an unfair advantage if they got 2 serves (scoring opportunities) before the other team.
if your momentum is toward kitchen, and you wait to step until the point ends, is that ok? though is that a bad strategy because the point ending isn't reliable? I mightve tried this on shots that usually end points. also I worry because in my local court, people don't call this and bringing up rules would be painful. I wonder what level of laxedness is good
I think it's the quality of the parts, and not just the battery but the internal yoke, motor, etc. The wheel system works great it's just lifting in and out of the car that is challenging.
The Ernie Pickleball Machine is using a 24V LiPo battery, which give it some heft, but is as light as your going to get. Consider a Sealed Lead Acid Battery (SLA) it is less than half the weight. SLA is what is found in most cars. If the Ernie team were happy with half the battery life, they might have used a 12V smaller, and thus lighter battery. I've got an idea. Take out the battery and use a portable power bank instead. You could load those two items into your car easier, right? Considering the cost of a replacement battery, over $200, it might be a good idea?!
Can you compare against the Titan? Similar software features and ability to program drills, but lighter and more portable. Would love to see side-by-side accuracy and ease of use. Thx!
Was hoping for a quick simple video but you got the rule wrong lol. You can spend the entire game in the kitchen unless you are serving, it only matters if you volley. It's like offside position vs. a real offsides call in soccer.
Why does the music get louder drowning out the narration. I didn't watch this video to listen to music. Happens alot. Also, consider playing at noon (sun directly overhead more or lesd) or early dusk where the shadows aren't so obvious. I'm watching the shadows instead of the ball. Distracting.
Hey great review. I really enjoyed the Erne too. Played with it at Picklemall. Love the large hopper. Not quite as sturdy as the Spinshot but maybe you could do a follow-up in a few months to let us know if it's still working and if you're still using it. Do you think coaches could benefit from using it in group lessons? Best, PMC
Awesome thanks! Will definitely follow up, I'm using it weekly at least now so let's see how it holds up. 100% I think coaches could benefit from it. I did a casual group lesson with some friends a couple weeks ago. I play at the Picklemall too - hope to see you out there!
HELP! In doubles when you’re serving, do BOTH players have to stand behind the service line? When my partner is serving, I like to stand just inside my side of the court. Someone told me I had to also stand behind the service line. Is that true?
I have the same question. I didn't think it was a "rule" but just better positioning. I too was told it wasn't allowed and am looking for a ruling on this.
@@pgklowak I’ve been playing pickleball 3-4 times a week since I first started 6 months ago. When your partner is serving, you CAN stand inside your side of the court. I’m only a little inside my box IF I know the returner will dink his return. That gives me 1 step closer to getting the ball that might land inside the kitchen. HOWEVER, I would never stand so close to the kitchen because the returner might return the serve deep, and you have to let the ball bounce once on your side before you can attack the ball before it bounces.
It’s clear that partner can stay inside I watch some professor match. But in pickleball rule I haven’t read the rule that the receiver feet must be outside when receive ball from serving. Is that true?
@@thangbuimanh4733 - Since January, I’ve played pickleball 3-4 times a week, with hundreds of different players. I know some players who can serve just past the kitchen line. With those servers, I’m 1 step inside my “box”. No one has ever said I had to be outside the box to receive a serve. (However, I would never recommend being more than 1 step inside your box since you have to let the serve bounce before you can hit it.)
In singles you continue to serve and switch sides as you score, just like in doubles. But if you lose the point serving in singles, it goes to your opponent. You don't get two serves.
There is a far easier way to do this. Make the first score the team that scores first. For example, 4-2, The serving team which is leading misses. Score is 4-2 second server, second server misses, the ball goes the other team. The score is 4-2 first server, that team wins the point now the score is 4-3 first server, that team loses the point, now it's 4-3 second server. You could probably leave out the first or second server designations. Teams kind of know that. So now it looks more like tennis scores without the love.
So…is it true that if I begin the game on the right side of the court the score for our team should always be even when I am on the right side? Which of course means when I am on the left side, our score is always odd? When confusion over the current score comes up this could help. Your thoughts please.
@@pickleheadswait, the right/even and left/odd score only applies when playing singles, right? Since with teams, the serve always starts on the right side and that team may have an odd score at the time. Am I correct about that?
