How to play Beach Tennis?
One side serves and the other team on the other side of the court receives the serve. The right to serve first is decided at the start of the match through a toss. The player who wins the toss can choose to either be the first to serve or receive or even to just pick a side of the court.
The serving has only one opportunity to serve. Apart from this, there is no repetition, service let or second serve in beach tennis. This is a great idea from our point of view, we always don’t have a second chance in life for all that we do right?
The scoring is almost like regular tennis, the difference is that there is a no advantage system, after deuce. So, yes !!! You better make that net point to win the game.
So How do you make a point?
A team or player wins a point when the ball touches the ground within the marked boundaries of the court, or if the opponent commits a fault like hitting the ball on the net or if the ball lands outside the court.
Beach tennis uses several scoring formats: best of 3 sets, 1 set. If both players have accumulated three points each (15, 30, 40), then one of the players must score an additional point to win the game.
To win a set, a player must score 7 or 9 games with a lead margin of at least two games. When the players have scored 6 or 8 games.
