How to Play Tennis

Tennis is one of the funnest sports to play (once you get good at it). You can play singles, doubles, and so on. The points go 15, 30, 40. If you have scored and the other person has not then you say 15 love if you are the server. Always say your score first. When you serve you have to get the ball in the square opposite the side you are serving. There is a line in the middle of the court on the base line. Stand behind the base line and to the side of that line to serve.

In singles if you hit the ball into the long rectangles or out of the court it is considered out. Whoever hit that ball does not get the point the other person does. If you are playing doubles and you hit the ball into the long rectangles on the side of the court it is still
considered "in" so then the ball is still in play.
