Padel Rules You NEED To Know

Didn't know that you cannot return ball using your own side fence....

Thanks for the video. I am missing 2 things though. Fist is if there is requires position to stay in for your partner if you serve. The second is if you smash and the ball hist the ground of the opponent side and goes outside of the court without touching anything else. Thanks

Thank you. This is the first video that has been really informative and not just rubbish.

@thepadelschool, what are the rules for serving order and returning? is that like tennis as well?

999

Can someone enlighten me regarding the position is the partner of I'm the server? Been told that the partner should remain on the same side at all times which seems odd as it creates a few seconds when we both stand on the same side.
Or is the rule identical' to tennis where the partner and the server switch side for each point? Thanks for the help

How do you score a ball that is spiked and hits the opponents back wall then comes back over the net without any players touching the ball?

Note to self: use Faisal bear pm + no result bias whatsoever to gant etc (we are being a result monkey we need to be a pm bear !)
&
See how other websites leave a lot out and we don’t care we’ll go to the nth degree to bend backward to provide the info service etc fear of losing customers but not the case at all so be liberated and empowered by this and go forth with quick info slot to design tracks

Collaborate for knowledge (more chemistry in self umpire learning hub)

Tie break when it's 6 6 you serve from the backhand position first 2 and then others serve 2 from the backhand side as well? I haven't seen that video so far. So instead like you start to serve from right to left you'd serve from left to right.

After each successful serve the server should change the court sides (left and right) but i have question about number of successful serves that was not answered here.
Should server changes after 2 serves, 4 or after a game point?

Dear Sandy, thanks for the video. Question : if the ball touches the net, bounces on the receiving square and then goes to the fence , not glass -is this out on serve?

Can you play the shot if the ball bounces on your side and hits the fence?

Hi @ThePadelSchool ! This was very informative video! Thank you for that🙏🏻 Can you tell me one more rule for me please.
If the serve is made otherwise correctly but it hits the net, you get new first serve. What happened after that if you serve again correctly with net touch?
Or in case the first serve is not good at all and the second serve goes correctly, but with net touch, you get again new second serve, but what if you hit the net again?
Thank you already for the answer 🙏🏻

Guys please clear my doubt. I am new to this game. Who gets the point if serve is out?(ball goes past service line of opponent). Or is it reserve?

Mate. Not a legal serve on the 2nd one. It's well above you're waist

"Play a let"?! What is that?

Hi Sandy, quick question
How many steps can the server make before contacting the ball when serving. Ive read about " not running or walking etc" but can't find a definitive rule
Can you clarify this point please

are you allowed to hit the ball back without it hits the ground on a serve?

Thank you so very much! This was very helpful😊

Great videos and explanations. About the only channel I found that is actually easy to follow and has actual tips. Great job! (from a beginner)

Hi, I Had A Question. If I Am Serving And My Serve Hits The Net, Bounces In My Opponents Service Area And Then Hits The Metal Fence, Is It A Let Or A Fault?

He said that you can hit the ball off glas and to the opposite side but NOT of the fence that's above the glass, but what about the fences on the sides? Is that allowed?

Great video, especially the golden point is nice to know. I would love more information about which side to stand on. Based on this video, the partner can stand anywhere on the court. What about the person serving or returning.

If I strike the ball on my own side of the net but then my racquet follows through and crosses the net, without touching it,........is this allowed? I believe that it is but was told recently that it is not allowed and therefore a fault.

Can we hit our fence or glass and push the ball to the other side? Is it allowed only incase if the ball is bounced?

Is there a rule that either the server, or opposing team should switch sides after a point? My mates do it but i cant find the rule and pro’s dont seem to be doing it

Is there rules on how many times the ball can bounce on the glass wall before you need to hit it?

Hello Sandy, thank you for the video. One question to you and the rest of the users - if during play (after the serve has been returned) the ball bounces on the grass and then hits the side fence, can I play off the fence before the ball hits the ground again?

Fantastic video and thanks for posting it :-) Can u please tell me why is the side wall in front made of mesh only and not glass like the side wall at the back and behind the player? Is the rule the same when the ball hits it? I have not seen players try to hit the ball to this side wall much to close a point quick. Why is that?

Best introductory video on padel, thanks!

What if the ball lands between the glass and the ground?

Hi Sandy, during a serve, the ball bounces twice in the opponent’s correct boundary but the hits the mesh before the opponent can get to it. Is the ball still in play ie even if the trajectory was towards the mesh net ?

Can you use the Golden Point every time you have Deuce or once during a match, like in Football (Golden Goal)?

sir what happen if both side reach 6-6 on a set how is the decider played?

Hello sandy
A quick question that i didn't find it's answer
If i hit off the back glass and it touches my side of fence after rebounding the back glass is it a fault ?

Hi Sandy, great content I’m really enjoying it. Quick question, during a rally can you make yourself bigger with your arms out from your body when a ball is being hit on to your side of the court. Similar to a goalkeeper making himself bigger to save a shot in football

I have a question
If the ball bounce and hit the fence not the glass does it consider a point
And if it bounce beyond the court does it also consider a point
Btw/ sorry for my bad English

Question regarding Rule 9 of Padel:
Is a net first service repeated or considered like faults?

Note, Padel Regulations 2021 do not tell us how to deal with Net First Service. It states that Let first services is repeated, and, Let/Net second services repeated.
9.2.b "If there is a “let” on the first serve, it should be the complete point repeted"
9.2.c:"If the “net” or “let” is on the second serve, the server will have only the right to repeat the second serve"

Hi Sandy, when I make a power shot and it hits the wall directly, if the opponent assists, does it count as point for the opponent or for me?

Hi. We are having a discussion concerning the position of the receiver of the serve.
Some of us mean that te receiver also has to stand behind the service line. A few even mean the receiver has to stand behind the service line until the ball has bounced in the service box. Others mean that the receiver can stand where he wants or at least can enter the service box after the serve has been hit…
What is the correct rule?

If the ball hits the fence in the first serve is there a second serve or it will be considered as a fault?

So the receivers of the serve can stand wherever they want to? They dont need to be behind the white line?

shit! played with „tennis“ deuce for a year now.. actually made us have incredible games.. dont wanna stop that actually^^

I have a question for you Sandy.
In every padel game that we play with an opponent sometimes he speaks during the point to his teammate but when the ball is in our court, in the specific time I try to hit the ball I listen to his voice and he confuses me, is there a rule about this;;
Thanks in advance
