Learning to play pickleball? Tune in to learn all you need to know about pickleball scoring. When you are first learning to play pickleball, the rules and scoring can seem very complex. But the more you play, the more it will become second nature. Here are the basics for pickleball scoring

The basic rules of pickleball scoring
Although there are many scoring rules of pickleball, there are a few basics that are really important to remember, including points, how to keep score, and what happens during a serve.
Points
Pickleball can be played as singles or doubles, but the scoring stays pretty much the same.
Pickleball is usually played to 11 points, and you have to win by two.
Tournaments can be played to 15 or 21, win by two.
Pickleball can be played as singles or doubles.
Every rally begins with a serve.
Only the serving team can score a point by winning a rally.
In doubles, each player on a team has a chance to serve.
Only one player serves during the first serve of the game before it is handed over to the other team.
Your score
Before each serve, the server should call out the score by saying: their team's score first - the opposing team's score - their server number (which may either be one or two).
An example of this would be 2-0-1, which is 2 (your team’s score), 0 (the opposing team’s score), and 1 (whether you are the first or second server on your team).
Serving
After you announce the score, there are a few serving rules in pickleball to remember:
The player in the right service court will always serve first for a team.
If the serving team scores a point, the two players switch places so the first server now serves from the left service court.
The serving team will continue switching places until they lose a rally.
When the serving team loses a rally, the second server will now serve in the position they are already in.
Once the serving team loses another rally, the opposing team now has two chances to serve. This is called a side out.
In singles play, each player serves until they lose a rally.
It is only necessary to call out the score during singles and not the server's number (examples: 1-5, instead of 1-5-1).
Serving example
The score is four to three, with the serving team in the lead. The first server is still serving. The score is called out as 4-3-1.
The serving team loses the rally, so now the second server will serve and call out the score as 4-3-2.
The serving team wins the rally, so the serving team will switch places. The second server will call out the score as 5-3-2, and serve.
The serving team loses the rally this time, so it is side out. Now the opposing team has two chances to serve.
The first server on the opposing team will call out the score as 3-5-1 before serving.
First serve of a pickleball game
The only exception to both players serving is with the very first server of a game.
The very first server of the game still serves from the right service court, but he or she starts as the second server so the team who serves first does not have an unfair advantage.
The very first score of the game is called out as 0-0-2.
Because the first server of the game is considered the second server, a side-out is called as soon as the serving team faults and the other team gets to serve. Here are a few more pickleball scoring rules to remember concerning the first serve of the game:
- Once a player loses the rally, it is a side-out.
- It is important to keep track of which service court you serve from.
- If you are the first server of the game and your score is an even number, you should be serving from the right service court.
- If you are the first server of the game and your score is an odd number, you should be serving from the left service court.
Pickleball tournament scoring
Pickleball tournament scoring is the same as regular games, with a few potential exceptions:
- Tournament games may be scored to 11, 15, or 21.
- The winner must still win by two.
- Some tournaments may have their matches be best of three or best of five games.
Pickleball scoring rules for singles play
In pickleball singles, each player only serves once. If your score is an even number, you serve from the right service court and if your score is an odd number, you serve from the left service court. Once a player loses the rally, it is a side out.
Learning the scoring rules of pickleball
The scoring rules of pickleball may seem very complicated at first, but getting out and playing will help you learn more quickly. Whether you are taking a beginner pickleball course or just jumping right in to play, fellow players will help you learn and remind you of the best way to score pickleball games.

Pretty easy when you summarize it: 1. Both teammates have a turn to serve. Start on the right side. 2. If you score a point, you serve again and switch sides with your teammate. If you don't, it's your teammate's turn to serve. 3. When both servers have had their turn, the ball turns over. 4. At the start of the game, the first team only gets one turn to serve before the ball turns over.

@@jeaniekeen9066 So typically both players on a team get a turn serving before the ball turns over. The one exception is in the beginning of the game. Whichever team starts the game only gets one turn to serve before the ball turns over. This is to prevent the starting team from having too great of an advantage.

@DW-cy1tp 7 месяцев назад

For the first serve of the game I was taught to say”0-0-start”. It helps to differentiate it from the rest of the game where it’s server #1 and #2. There is only one “start” server. Once the “start” server does not win the point, switch serving to the other team.

@maryhurst4663 4 месяца назад

@MasterL3Xa Your 4th grader is a card carrying mensa member and officiates as referee at the local pickleball club when they complete their calculus homework. They really understand the game, rules and scoring- cause you can't understand the scoring without knowing the game. Adults are having difficulty with the scoring system, maybe because they have been exposed to other systems like in badminton and tennis. So if school kids are having difficulties as says the teacher & OP, is it any wonder. It must be the 5th and 6th grade teacher's fault, right...thats exactly what you're saying. Of course your superior parenting skills for your grade 4 little idiot savant buys YOU😮 the acclaim. Get over it!!

@girlart9 Год назад

Yes, I thought the person who wrote the scoring rules was high when they did. When the serving team would miss the shot, I used to think my partner and me got a point. No-ooo! No one bothered to tell me a team only scores when they are serving. So there’s that. Because a team can score only while serving, the first team must start on the second server, like this: 0-0-2. The first 0 is my score (and partners), the second zero is the opponent’s score, and the 2 means I am second server. THIS IS ONLY at the start of the game. Let’s say, I serve and opponents miss. Now the score becomes 1-0-2. You always call your points first, then opponents and then what number server you are. So, now my partner and I switch positions and I serve again. I say 1-0-2. I serve, the opponents return it and I (or my partner) misses. No point is given to the opponents. The ball goes to opponents. Their first server says: 0-1-1. THEIR score is still zero. MY score is 1. And THEY are server one. Their first server serves great and my side misses. Now the score is 1-1-1. Their team switches position. And the server calls: 1-1-1. That server serves great, we miss and so now the score is 2-1-1. When that side misses a shot, THEN, the ball is served by the other teammate on their side. So the score is called thus: 2-1-2. If the mess up, the ball comes back to us the server will call out: 1-2-1. 1 is our score. 2 is their score and 1 because they are server #1. At first I hated the scoring method, but now I understand it and it’s really not stressful in the least. Pickelball is such good fun with so many tactics that if I were you, play some more. And ALSO watch pickelball scoring videos on RU-vid. There are a couple that are excellent!

@thiaco6203 Год назад

LOTS OF issues with scoring esp. for newbies: 1. Remember there are 2 servers in doubles….server #1. And server #2. DURING the GAME: IF server #1 fails to get the point, then server #2 will serve and try to make A point. IF server #2 fails, the ball is a side out and given to the other team. The ball will be served from the RIGHT or EVEN court facing the net of the opponent’s side. 2. TO BEGIN A NEW GAME: there is a ‘starting’ score…..like a coin toss…one team will start with SAYING 0-0-2 (first 0 is my score), second 0 is the opponent’s score and the 2 means SECOND SERVER….IF this ‘2nd’server faults or loses possession of the serve by failing to make the point, the ball goes to their opponent. It can also be called out as “0-0-START”. Most common is 0-0-2 Some places will just do rally score keeping….THIS may help you: This Pickleball scoring is JUST like the OLD volleyball score keeping days BEFORE volleyball switched to rally scoring. Rally scoring is whenever a serve is made, a point is given to whoever wins the point. Lots of debate about the scoring within all the organizations.

@scot_smith Год назад

Still so many questions: do servers 1 and 2 stay 1 and 2 or can they switch after side outs? Do teams ever switch ends of the court (one may have a sun disadvantage)? After a side out do serves always begin on the "even" side? And just clarifying that when server 2 takes over, it will be from the alternate side server 1 just lost on, correct? Do players 1 and 2 receiving serves have to do so from the same side throughout or can they ever switch?

@aae42 Год назад

gonna give answering this a try in the spirit of cunningham's law: 1. they stay throughout the game, but that first serve when you start 2nd server doesn't matter as much 2. depends on how many games you're playing, if we go best of 3 or 5, we'll switch ends every game and if it comes down to the 3rd or 5th game, we'll switch sides when the first person gets to 6 3. for doubles, seems like that's the case, yea... for singles, no, you serve based on what your score is (even is right, odd is left) 4. yes, that's my understanding 5. i do think there are rules about receiving, but after the first return you can run to whatever side you want

@baggottgroup Год назад

Question - does the opposing team's partner that is not receiving the serve need to be at the kitchen line? or can that person be anywhere within that box that he/she stands in? I read that the reason the partner needs to be at the kitchen line is to see if the ball is served within the kitchen or out of bounds. I would think it doesn't matter as long as the partner is within that box and would be able to see the ball served within the kitchen or out of bounds? I have watched a few tournaments and that opposing team's partner (not being served to) is not at the kitchen line.

@aae42 Год назад

don't think it matters, they just do that so they don't need to run up later, at higher level play you want to be up on the line on the 3rd shot... they're the only person on the court who can stand there from a good strategy standpoint, everyone else needs to pretty much stay behind the service line, because the opposing team will just return deeply and foul the other team by not allowing the 1st (receiving) or 2nd (serving) bounce

And when it is my doubles partners turn to serve do they always serve first from right hand side regardless of where my last serve was???

@alinski5 6 месяцев назад

See 2:18 of the video. At the beginning of each game only one partner on the serving team has the opportunity to serve before faulting, after which the service passes to the receiving team. When a sideout occurs, the player on the right side of the serving team serves first and is designated first server. Depending on your position after a sideout, the person on the right side always serves first. Hope this helps.

@JCMeyer Год назад

I'm still not clear about doubles positioning and odd (left side) and even (right side) scoring. So when the game starts (0-0-2), Team A serves and whoever is standing on the right side in Team A is Server 2. Let's say Team A scores 3 points from Server 2 then faults and Team B gets the serve. So in the Team B side, whoever is starting in the right side will be Server 1 and the one standing on the left will be Server 2. So Team B be calls out 0-3-1. Team B faults and the serve goes to Server 2. So Team B calls out 0-3-2. Team B faults again and the serve returns to Team A. Because Team A's score is odd (3) whoever is standing on the left side becomes Server 1 and serves from there (left side)?

I think they're referring to the fact that, in doubles, each player gets to serve before there's a sideout or whatever. Since you can only score while serving, it would give the team that served first too great an advantage if both served. So at the beginning they don't both serve.

@mapfield13 Год назад

If the first serve is won by the serving team (Team A), the server switches sides of the court with their teammate and serves again, calling out 1-0-2 (I.e. the initial server remains the second server). In the second scenario you present, it is a side out and Team B now serves, starting with whoever is in the right court, calling out 0-0-1 (their initial server is the first server)

It makes sense if you're a tennis person (and serving starts like a tie break - you get 1 to start and then everyone gets two.) If you're not a tennis person - I'm sorry, and good luck ;) lol (Basically it is out of fairness, the starting serving team only gets 1 player worth of serving instead of 2 like normal just to ensure nobody gets to 11 too fast.) The big difference to tennis is that both players on the same team get to serve, the first one until they lose a rally, then the second one until they lose a rally - except (of course lol) for the very first serve of the match. The scoring is ping-pong scoring except you call out which of your team's two serves per turn (sideout) you are on.

If you start 002 and win, the serve, do you then call out 001?

@TC-dw6wg Год назад

002 = First 0: your teams score Second 0: opponents team score Third 2: server’s number 102 is the score after you win a point. Win another point score is 202.

@nikosogamias 5 месяцев назад

wait at 1:56 since the score is odd shouldnt red shirt be serving from the left

Scoring is similar to the old badminton scoring method. Nothing new but something to adjust to.

Does even number right service court and odd number left service court also apply in doubles?

@sherryj26 7 месяцев назад

So if I’m the receiving aka non serving team, and I win the rally, I don’t get the point. Winning the rally just means it’s my team’s chance to serve?

@PlayPickleballCOM 7 месяцев назад

Yes, but remember both players on the serving team get a chance to serve before the receiving team wins the ball back. So you must stop them twice (not necessarily consecutively) to get a chance to serve.

Ref min 3:00 is it Odd or Even based upon the ENTIRE score (both sides) combined, or just your own teams score?

@brookenelson1477 Год назад

Just you're side's total points.

Just like table tennis, surely, apart from calling out the server number and score.

I think everyone complaining about the scoring is over thinking it. its not complicated.

@mychaelvo7597 6 месяцев назад

Lots of people here complaint about the rule... If you apply common sense and fairness, the scoring rule (including serving) really makes sense. The sport intention is to make it fun, fair and easy for everyone: 1, the game is easy to play 2, the rule is to make it fair for both side (team) such as serving once at the start of the game, 2 bounce rule, non-volley zone. All of which is to keep the game fair. 3, the serving rule (scoring rule) is to give all the players opportunity to serve and to server on every side of the court. It is all common sense folks. I am just starting to play Pickle Ball and I do not thing the rule is hard at all. When in doubt, ask yourself what really makes sense and apply common sense. Have fun playing!

There are no deuces in pickleball. Think of each game like a tie break to 11. Just like a tie break, you must win by 2.

@MichaelFargarson 2 года назад

@@recon4786 Just like a tennis tie break, you play until a player or team has a 2 point advantage such as 12-10. Until one player or team wins 2 points in a row, the game must continue. The score could potentially be 51-49 if it takes that long for one side to get a 2 point advantage.

@1:43, the score is 4-3, the second server's turn to serve after the first server messes up. Why is the guy in the red shirt on the odd side if the score is 4-3? specifically 4-3-2. I thought that if your score is even, you ALWAYS serve on the even side. Is THIS the only time the serving position doesn't matter? When the first server loses, the second server serves from where he/she is standing regardless of the even/odd score??? Edit: Nevermind, I just figured it out. The FIRST SERVER, after a side out or start of the match, is the person who needs to be on the even or odd side when serving. When its The SECOND server's turn, he/she can be on the odd side (when their score is even and vice versa) ONLY AFTER the First Server loses his/her serve.

@AnNguyen-xd4nh 8 месяцев назад

Ah, so you're still struggling with the scoring system in Pickleball, huh? Well, let me break it down for you, addressing the issues you've raised. 1. In doubles, remember that there are two servers: server #1 and server #2. During the game, if server #1 fails to score a point, then server #2 will have a chance to serve and try to earn a point. If server #2 also fails, it's a side out, and the ball is given to the other team. The ball is served from the right or even court, facing the net on the opponent's side. 2. To begin a new game, there is a starting score, similar to a coin toss. For example, it could be announced as "0-0-2" (the first 0 is your score, the second 0 is the opponent's score, and the 2 signifies the second server). If the second server faults or fails to score a point, the ball goes to their opponent. This starting score can also be called out as "0-0-START." The most common starting score is "0-0-2." Some places may use rally scoring, which is similar to the old days of volleyball scoring before it switched to rally scoring. Rally scoring means that whenever a serve is made, a point is awarded to the team that wins the point. I understand there may be debates about scoring within different organizations. Scoring systems can vary, and it's important to familiarize yourself with the specific rules and regulations of the organization or event you're participating in. I hope this summary clarifies some of the issues you've been facing with the scoring in Pickleball. Remember, understanding the rules is crucial, but don't let it consume you. Just get out there, play the game, and enjoy yourself. And if anyone gives you trouble, tell them the Crypto Expert said to mind their own damn business.

@shaun6729 8 месяцев назад

Ive just started and finding keeping track very difficult, especially if I can't hear the opponents call the score, or they just don't say it. In one game last week I partnered with an experienced lady who pointed out that both our opponents had dementia so, although they could both play, they couldn't keep track of the scores so others did it for them (good on them for playing and enjoying it). The cheeky side of me thought of pretending I had memory loss until I got the hang of the scoring! no I haven't done this and won't! tempting as though it is at times!! Can I add that I find I am getting quite intimidated by some seasoned players who seem to get quite ticked off that I'm not getting it just yet and get especially lost after lengthy rallies. In other sports I don't find this, why is pickleball so different?

This game needs the court to be long and wide, such as the length of the court is eight and four out of ten yards by eight and four out of ten yards, and the width of the court is eight and four out of ten yards, because the size of the current court is very small ' the game should acquire luxury like tennis, and the luxury consists in 🤓

Why not say ‘2-3-first’/‘2-3-second’ Instead of ‘2-3-1’/‘2-3-2’? Sounds less confusing when saying that out loud and much more coherent to understand in case someone misheard you

You win by getting to 11 but have to win by 2? I need to understand this ...

@MichaelFargarson 2 года назад

Yes, it's just like ping pong or a tennis tie break in that regard. If you get to 11 points by an advantage of 2 points (i.e. 11-9) you win that game. However, if you have 10 points and your opponent gets to 10 before you get 11, then you must get two points in a row to win the game. Then the score will be at least 12-10, but it could be just as well be 101-99 if that is the first time either player gains a 2 point advantage.
