The 2022 USA Pickleball Rules - While there are several rule changes for 2022, below is a summary of the few rules that involve rec play:
1. Let Serves - there has been NO change in this rule from 2021. Let serves are not replayed.
2. Drop Serve - only change is the word "Provisional" has been removed from rule.
3. Wrong Score Called - If a player thinks a wrong score has been called, a player may stop play to ask for a correction BEFORE the ball is served. If it has been served, the rally is to be played out and the score correction (if any) is made before the next serve occurs.
4. Spin Serves - the server shall use only one hand to release the ball to perform the serve. If the ball is visibly spun by the server during the release, the part(s) of the hand contacting the ball must be bare.
