BREAKING NEWS: Pickleball Rules Changes 2024

The rules have been finalized for 2024 what rules change what stay the same pick aall lovers let’s not forget to for Good Day always one of the major significant rule changes in 2024 is a carry is illegal period what does that mean basically in 2023 if you carried the ball by accident

It’s fine right you carry the ball you put it away you win the point and it’s okay in 2024 you can’t carry even by accident what’s a carry I’ll explain a carry is exactly how it sounds you somewhat hold the ball on the paddle slightly longer let me

Demonstrate set right and then I throw it so it’s almost I carry and throw it and I think that’s a good demonstration and I’ll do it in real time here we go we’re carrying the ball we’re throwing the ball woo that’s pretty good you can see in slow motion I’m purposely keeping the

Ball on the padd a little longer so I can apply a little more spin right it doesn’t matter if it’s intentional or not good news for those people that can’t find good partners in tournaments you can now play many singles in tournaments what’s many singles basically you just play your side right

You play your side and you have no one to blame it on and you could do that in 2024 pretty exciting what do you think leave your comments another rule change in 2024 is a saging net right a sagg in net if the ball bounces hits a saging

Net the referee does not have to determine it you and your opponents can now this rule got submitted by someone probably drinking late at night and failed what is it to extend the kitchen an extra foot It’s s feet right now someone said it should be eight I’m

Assuming this person is a little shorter mad about playing those long people that can get far out in the kitchen right it’s actually not a horrible idea you just have to repave all the courts in America all the parks in America all the private facilities in America and what’s

The word I’m looking for wouldn’t be practical rally scoring you either love it or hate it right it makes tournaments go quicker so a rule was submitted to allow the tournament director to switch to Rally scoring like if it rained a time constraint right this got held for

Far study the board of directors was torn on this one one of the members said it should be used for singles however it changes the game for doubles and that for should never be used for a tourament other people thought differently but this is still a contentious matter for

2025 now if you’re not familiar with rally scorn every single single point counts if you return and win that point you get a point if you serve you get a point anyway you always do right every single point counts and when I’m playing rally scoring I play a lot less

Aggressive and it does change my style and some people say it changes the game the second rule that failed and I’m sure you’ll be really happy at home I’m not too happy couple years I would have been but I’m not happy right now what is it

The drop serve should be the only serve in pickle ball it failed why don’t I like the traditional serve no one really knows right if you’re losing can you do this and give the ref a judgment call which creates more arguments which we’re trying to avoid regardless in 2024 you

Can use both the traditional serve and drop serve doesn’t matter what I think what do you think please leave it in comments number three is a really important one and may cost you a point at a tournament if you don’t know what is it if you’re playing a point and the

Referee is watching you think a ball went out you hit it finish the point and then you say referee was that ball in they say it was out however the referee is going to tell you you should have stopped the point when you thought it was out because if it’s finished we

Don’t go back to take some pressure off the referees I really like this rule I think it’s a good idea so if you’re in a tournament and you know the ball is out stop playing but make sure you know the ball’s out right along these lines of

Stopping or finishing a point if you think the ball is cracked finish the point period And then after you can talk to your opponents if you’re playing the point in a tournament the ball has a horrible balance because it’s cracked but keep playing the point right and if

You both decide the broken ball affected the point you can replay however if you don’t agree right you don’t could the ref get involve sure have you ever been playing in a tournament you’re supposed to switch at six it’s game three but you forget you were supposed to switch at 6

Now it’s 8 and you realize what happened switch sides at the time you realize it right if it’s a couple points that passed you can still switch sides so that’s something good to know a huge issue in 2023 that I don’t feel the rules committee addressed is a color of

The clothes I mean this wording you can take a look but it’s very vague now the referee doesn’t even have the decision to make them change CH clothing and it’s up to your opponents if I have a white paddle with this white shirt it’s very tough to see that given the paddle

Manufacturers one year to get it right that’s what I think at least I really don’t have inside information but a lot of P manufacturers like the cirk Lux have the same color as like the shirt is this cheating top right hand corner it’s a white paddle and some white on the shirt but

It’s it’s also red pedals too white and red paddle white and red shirt you can’t see the ball off the paddle let’s see that in slow motion very tough to see right bottom right hand corner Keith Valentine playing with the Lux look at his shirt look at the paddle you decide

This is a really good point my point is if the ball’s coming fast off that paddle you’re not going to see it as fast as if he wasn’t wearing that white shirt with that paddle and look at cliff in the top left hand corner he is very

Slow at identifying where the ball came off Keith Valentine’s paddle with that lux it’s white the white shirt with gold on the shirt as Well because it’s tough to see off the paddle especially if you’re wearing the same color for example the D icon is white and I’m wearing white and it’s very tough for them to pick up on the ball and it’s a huge Advantage for me and I’m somewhat cheating right we gave

Brian so much trouble at the beginning of the segment but I think it’s more unfair what I’m doing look at me I’m in white with the wi paddle Ed Perez who plays Pro drops his paddle because he can’t see the ball look at it in slow motion it’s an unfair advantage that I

Got a couple weeks ago did I know I was getting it I take the fifth and look at me top left hand corner again very tough to see the white paddle with the white shirt and again that’s me going nuclear and everyone remembers the neon outfit Coco golf war and Tennis but you

Have to keep in mind pickle ball is played at a much closer proximity especially at the kitchen and any slight Advantage even to the eth of a second is going to really help you a lot because it’s close proximity like I said before Senior Pro Mark naodovic made another

Really good point he called me and said Joey it’s not just seeing the ball come off the paddle when people are wearing white on white it’s very tough to see the angle of the paddle he’s extremely fast and he looks at the angle of the paddle and he can’t really see let me

Ask you a question what can you see better now we’ll do the white now this isn’t totally white right probably more than 20% the red helps a lot the diadem icon’s pretty white you can see the video like you just did but my point is it is an advantage and

Marovich thinks it is too good luck we should have stopped at game one this match may have been famous for some other controversies but again neon top right hand corner same exact color as adorable right same exact some fighting I told this was very controversial but again

Neon ball same exact color as a pickleball player shirt and it’s an advantage I believe unfairly wearing the same color as a pickle ball paddle has a huge Advantage having white yellow neon and gold paddles probably shouldn’t happen in my mind this argument in 2024 will happen constantly because it does

Happen I go to a lot of tournaments and they should have done something to change it pickle ball lovers what rule did you really want to see pass that didn’t please leave it in comments don’t forget to save 10% on any paddle Keeps Us in business and saves you 10% the

I started this channel quite by accident, I was recording my games to do film study and get better. I did not have time or money for lessons from pro pickleball coach, so I started watching all my screwups. People that I was playing with started to ask if they could watch too and I said sure. That helped all of us a lot to improve our game, strategy, mental toughness, and techniques. Now we have new pickleball videos published several times a week. We occasionally have pro pickleball players on the channel. Mostly its non pro pickleball players on their quest to 5.0 pickleball. We have all levels come through the channel, but we concentrate on the 4.0 pickleball, 4.5 pickleball and up to 5.5 pickleball with the pros.

  1. White paddles are tough to pick up the ball but white paddle and a white shirt is almost impossible to pick up the ball when the paddle is in front of the body.

  2. Again, make no sense not to allow Rally scoring as an option! Doubles beach volleyball as well as 4-6 indoor volleyball Rec to Pro level use it successfully!

  3. I love skinny singles and have got 2 gold medals playing! I only like doubles when I have a consistent partner who knows how to play doubles.

  4. The white on white discussion is valid, but once you then use the angle of the paddle in your argument you lose me because most paddles are black but MANY players wear black shirts and shorts but the same argument is not made.

  5. I still think that all serves should be drop serves. Consistent with the origins of the game and simplifies the rules, cuts out a lot of controversy when someone has a strong serve and opponents feel compelled to question its legality.

  6. The problem with rally scoring is that it makes it almost impossible from making up large deficits. I have been down by seven and eight points in pickleball singles and came back and won both times. With rally scoring that wouldn't have happened.

  7. Rally scoring is terrible…
    Just play with a real skill player ball
    Dura fast 40 only…
    All others points last way 2 long…
    Last thing this game needs

  8. I'm new to the game and haven't played any tournaments so take it for what it's worth. I play with one group that plays rally scoring and another that plays traditional. I'm perfectly fine with rally scoring but with one caveat. I don't think a fault serve should result in a point to the other team. It really takes away the fun of trying to vary up your serve and forces you to be conservative. I'd be fine with a double fault system on the serve, but would probably just say that a fault serve gives serve to the other team but with no lost point.

  9. The color rule for shirt and paddle makes sense to me. I come from table tennis, and the 2 forbidden colors for shirts r white and orange when the ball is white or orange. Typically we don’t have a problem with the paddle because the colors r red and black.

  10. The match with Rob Cassidy got crazy because the opponents kept asking "Right server/Right receiver" constantly and at the last second before time was running out after score being called. Rob FLIPPED OUT!!

  11. I can't understand your explanation of the "saggy net"… What is the outcome? Also… Does it include the bar on a portable net?……Thx

  12. Whit shirt, white paddle vs black shirt, black paddle vs blue shirt blue paddle….etc. Really only matters when the ball is struck in front of your body.

  13. concerning colors of paddles..balls and shirts..have 3 diff color balls for tourn..referee or team that isnt breaking the rule for a matching color decides on what color ball to play with..also white paddles should be banned because of difficulty to see–especially in sunlight where light is refracted and not absorbed

  14. Rally scoring should never be allowed. The rule that should been passed but wasn't is not allowing the paddle above the wrist and only upward swing on the drop serve.

  15. I thought there was a rule in 2023 about shirt color. You couldn't have a shirt that was too close in color to the ball being used. The ref could ask you to change
