Playing situation

The material is intended for beginners who already understand the draw, but lose the order of the pitch and position after the change of possession

Порядок разбора

Сначала назовите очки подающей команды, затем очки принимающей и номер подающего — один или два. При выигранном розыгрыше подающий получает очко и меняет сторону. После ошибки подача переходит партнёру, а после ошибки второго подающего происходит side out.

First, reconstruct the observed facts: the players' position, the bounce, the score announced and the moment the draw ends. Then apply the rule. In an argument, habit and confident tone do not replace facts

Start with three checkscall the account before the filing; first digits are the points of the pitching team; third digit number of the current holder.

Sign of the right decision

Understanding is not tested by retelling a definition, but by the same decision in two or three similar episodes, where the player must name a rule and immediately show the correct action on the court

Facts before the rule is applied

  • call the account before the filing
  • first digits are the points of the pitching team
  • third digit number of the current holder
  • After the point, change sides only to the pitcher and his partner
  • After side out, determine the starting new team

Why Players Are Arguing

The number one or two is not assigned to the person for the entire match. It refers to the order in the current possession of the serve. Rookies also change sides after a lost draw or call the first score of the team that received

Depends on the regulations

An official tournament can specify the score system, the appeal procedure and the role of the referee, and use the current rulebook and published rules to determine the outcome of the competition, rather than the club arrangement

Учебный сценарий

Сыграйте гейм до пяти, где каждый розыгрыш начинается только после того, как все четверо согласились со счётом и позициями.

A brief conclusion

If the episode cannot be restored, do not come up with a confident solution in retrospect. In a training game, disassemble the situation after the draw; in a tournament, follow the procedure specified by the organizer

Frequent questions

What does the 4-2-1 count mean

The pitching team has 4 points, the receiving team has 2, and the first serving of the current possession

When does the team change sides

The pitcher changes the right and left field after each point scored on his serve

Why is there a special number of the pitcher at the beginning of the game

The starting sequence in a standard doubles game has a separate rule: before the match, the host must explain the starting score
