How to play

To start the game you need to serve. Serving is when you throw the ball up and hit it in the service line. Then the other player hits it back and the game starts.

Tips

There are different types of styles to hit the ball. You can do topspin and slice. Topspin is where you hit the ball and it spins forward and when you do a slice it spins backwards.

Score 

When you serve and get the point you say 15-love then when the other person gets the point you say 15 all. when you get another point you say 30-15. The scores go like 15 love, 30 love and 40 love. If you get the next point you win the game and there are 6 games in the hole game. If you get up to 40 all in singles its called juice and if it singles its long juice and if its doubles its short juice. If its doubles and you are in juice and you win the next point you win that game. If its doubles and it's singles and you win the point it is vantage to sever and if you get the next point you win the game. But if the other person gets the point snd you are serving you say vantage to reserve.
