Pickle ball is a game played by two teams of two people. It is played on a pickle ball court Which looks like this:

Pickle ball is played with small paddles and a wiffle ball, the first team to get to eleven points wins, but you must win by two points. Every time you serve the ball you must first say the score, you do this by announcing your score, then your opponents score, and finally what server you are, one or two. The first serve of the game is 0-0-2 because you only get one person to serve. The server continues to serve until they lose a serve/point, but you can only get points on your serve. This means if I serve and get a point I would add one to my score, but if you get the point when I serve it just switches servers, so if I’m server 1 it goes to server 2, but if I am 2 it goes to the other team. When you serve you must be standing behind your square, and you must have the paddle below your waist and below your wrist. It must also go in the square diagonal from you, so if you are on the bottom right you must serve to the top left, if it lands out, in the wrong square or in the kitchen you lose the serve (the rectangular area closest to the net is called “the kitchen”). When you serve and get a point you and your teammate switch squares, but that’s only if you served it. After the server the other team must let the ball bounce before returning it over the net, then you must let it bounce, if you hit it before the bounce on the first two hits you lose the point. You also cant ever hit the ball while standing in the kitchen unless it bounced, this means you should try your best to stay out of the kitchen and only go in if the ball bounces in it.
