Padel rules for beginners: points, serves and the net

Er du ny i padel, er det især serven, pointene og brugen af glasset, der adskiller spillet fra andre ketchersportsgrene. Her får du reglerne i en enkel form, så I kan komme i gang uden lange diskussioner på banen.

Reglerne i korte træk

  • Spillet foregår normalt som double: to mod to.
  • Serven slås underhånds efter ét opspring og skal lande diagonalt i modstanderens servefelt.
  • Bolden må ramme dit eget glas, efter at den først har ramt gulvet på din side.
  • På modstanderens side skal bolden ramme gulvet, før den må ramme glas eller gitter.
  • Point tælles som i tennis. Aftal på forhånd, om I spiller med golden point eller fordel.

Why a simple start works

New players get the most out of brief explanations and plenty of repetition. Choose one rule or one task at a time. Once they feel confident with serving, scoring and the first glass balls, there’ll be more scope for tactics. This also makes the match more enjoyable for the others on the court.

Keep the pace down at the start. A slow ball gives you time to move your feet, talk to your partner and see what happens after the bounce. Long duels teach you more about the court than five quick mistakes.

The legal framework is as follows: Official documents of the International Padel Federation. Training suggestions are practical exercises and not additional official rules.
