The pickleball kitchen rules are essential to the game. The kitchen is a small space on the court where players can't strike the ball in the air. This area is located approximately 7 feet from net. This area is where you can take a high-ball shot, but not a full volley. To prevent players hitting into one another while close to the net, these kitchen rules are essential.
In pickleball, a volley is the act of smashing the ball before it touches the ground. Volleys can increase the ball's speed, especially if it is being hit high. A volley is useful when the ball's height is too high to use a groundstroke. Groundstrokes can be used to stop an opponent from winning or to maintain long rallies.
To start a volley, the player must not be within the kitchen line. If the opponent is in Kitchen, the partner may intervene and move him outside the Kitchen. Otherwise, the volley must be in the non volley zone.
Another rule is that a serve in the Kitchen will result in the opponent winning the point. The serve may be volleyed if the player is not in the Kitchen. Therefore, the opponent won't win the point.
Unlike a volley, a groundstroke is a shot that comes after the ball has bounced. The ball can often land on a corner or fall in the court when a player hits a "groundstroke". Because of this, a groundstroke is an easy target. A volley is also difficult to initiate if the player's in the kitchen.
A volley is when one player jumps up to hit a ball. A volley cannot be considered legal if the ball is hit by the player before it bounces. Groundstrokes will also be illegal if the ball is in the non volley zone.
The lines that run parallel to the sides of the net define the non-volley zones. The player who is in the Kitchen Zone or Non-Volley Zone can hit the ball but not his opponent.
There are some other rules in pickleball's kitchen that you should be aware of, aside from the rules for volleys. If the opponent is in Kitchen, the partner must be able block the ball so that the opponent cannot step out of the Kitchen. If the opponent is in Kitchen, he may touch the player's head and get a penalty.
Another rule is that you can only serve a single person. This is not considered to be a fault. The player who defends the Kitchen must instead return the serve to their opponent.
One other thing to remember is that a volley is not legal inside the Kitchen. There are some exceptions to this rule but only if the player is within the Non-Volley Zone.
