*SCORING
6 games in each set, you play best 2 of 3 sets
Each game starts at love-love and then continues 15,30,40, game.
*LETS
One type of let is when the ball hits the net and goes over, only on the serve. That is when you replay that serve. (you do not get 2 serves unless you hit a let on your first serve)
The second type of let is when you are playing a point and a ball rolls on your court or water bottle..ect. and you stop the point. That is when the server starts the point all over again with 2 serves.
*CHANGE OVERS
After every odd game, you switch sides.
You can not get water on the first switch over of the first set..
You have 90 seconds between breaks and twenty seconds between each point ( however you must play when the server is ready. )
*TIE BREAKERS
During a tiebreaker, the person who returned on the last game will serve 1 point.
After that you will take turns serving 2 points each.
I'm sorry if I could not help you, but good luck in playing!

First theres two sides with a net between. one person on a side. u let the ball bounce then u hit it with a racket to the other person. The other person hits it back. i go's on like that intill u missed it and couldnt hit it so the other person would win.
