Rules of The Tennis Courts

[Jisenki]

For the sports locations, your skills are only as good as anyone's in
real life unless you have created techniques. This means no super
speed, super strength, etc. unless you've made the technique for that
and have gotten it approved. Also, in any Sports RP, you don't use dice
but you use regular RPing which involves writing what your character
does. This means that we have to be fair in what we do and write. Since
this is for fun, the rules of the game will only be but so basic and
some rules may be tweaked or omitted from the forum that are in the
real game. These are the general rules of the game on this forum:

• Opponents stand on opposite sides of the
  court. The player who delivers the ball to start the
  point is called the server. The player who stands
  opposite and cross-court from the server is the receiver.
  
• The server shall stand behind the baseline on
  the deuce court within the boundaries of the singles
  court when playing singles and within the doubles
  sideline when playing doubles
  
• The receiver can stand
  where he likes but must let the ball bounce in the
  service box. If the ball does not land in the service
  box, it is deemed a fault and a second serve is given.
  If the ball is hit by either opponent before the ball
  bounces, the server wins the point.
  
• The server always calls his score first. If
  the server wins the first point, he gets a score of 15.
  Scoring is done like a clock. See example below. Love
  means zero in tennis. The second point is called 30. The
  third point is called 45 and
  game is won when the score goes back to love.
  
• After the game, the opponents serve. Games
  equal 1. The first to win 6 games, by two, wins
  
• A let is called during the point if a
  ball rolls on the court or there is a distraction from
  someone besides the players on the court.
  
• A ball that lands on the line is good
