Let's learn more about the rules that can't be violated in part two of "Faults in Pickleball."
-
Foot Faults: When serving, you must keep at least one foot behind the baseline. Stepping on or over the baseline before making contact with the ball is a fault.
-
Double Hits: Hitting the ball twice in succession on the same shot is not allowed. The ball must be struck cleanly in one motion.
-
Out of Bounds: Hitting the ball outside the court boundaries results in a fault. The ball must land within the lines to be considered in play.
-
Incorrect Server or Receiver: If the wrong player serves or receives, it is considered a fault. Make sure to follow the proper serving and receiving order.
-
Service Foot Fault: During the serve, if your foot touches the court or the line extending from the court, it is considered a service foot fault.
-
Ball Hits Permanent Object: If the ball hits a permanent object such as a ceiling, wall, or light fixture, it is a fault.
-
Wrong Service Court: The serve must go diagonally to the correct service court. Serving to the wrong court results in a fault.
-
Net Fault: If the ball touches the net but does not land in the correct service court, it is a fault. This includes serves that hit the net and do not land within the service boundaries.
