Regulation pickleball uses a scoring system called "rally scoring," where points can be scored by either the serving or receiving team. Games are typically played to 11 points, and a team must win by at least 2 points. In tournament play, matches may be played to 15 or 21 points, but the same 2-point margin applies. Only the serving team can score points during their serve, and players switch serving sides after each point scored.
