Tennis basic rules
Out of signs and features get to know the basic rules and regulations also.
A competent tennis player has eight basic shots in his or her repertoire:
- the serve,
- forehand,
- backhand,
- volley,
- half-volley,
- overhead smash,
- drop shot,
- and lob.
- The players (or teams) start on opposite sides of the net.
- One player is designated the server, and the opposing player is the receiver.
- The choice to be server or receiver in the first game and the choice of ends is decided by a coin toss before the warm-up starts.
- Service alternates game by game between the two players (or teams).
- For each point, the server starts behind the baseline, between the center mark and the sideline.
- A game consists of a sequence of points played with the same player serving.
- A game is won by the first player to have won at least four points in total and at least two points more than the opponent.
- The running score of each game is described in a manner peculiar to tennis:
- scores from zero to three points are described as "love", "15", "30", and "40", respectively.
- If at least three points have been scored by each player, making the player's scores equal at 40 apiece, the score is not called out as "40–40", but rather as "deuce".
- If at least three points have been scored by each side and a player has one more point than his opponent, the score of the game is "advantage" for the player in the lead.
The source of these rules and more information is available on Wikipedia tennis page.
