Zero-Zero-Two – How do you start each game? You call the score as Zero-Zero-Two! In other words, the score is 0-0 and the first pickleball player to serve the pickleball is the second server.

Zone – There are various “zones” on the pickleball court, including the non-volley zone (also known as the kitchen), the baseline area and the transition zone (also known as no man’s land, which is the area between the non-volley zone and area near the baseline).
