Your opponent will say their own score first, followed by yours, when it is their turn to serve.

For instance, say you started with 3 points and served from the left service court. If you win the rally, you now have 4 points and will serve from the right service court.

If you’re playing doubles and your partner won the rally, they get to serve. If your opponent won the rally, they get to serve.

For example, 22–20 is a winning score, as is 25–23.

If you win the first 2 games, a match only lasts 2 games. However, if you win 1 and your opponent wins 1, a match consists of 3 games.
