  1. A tiebreak in played first to seven points.

    To start, the first serve goes to the receivers forehand side. The first server only has one serve.

    Then, the other play serves and they serve it to the receivers backhand side. Then to the receivers forehand side.

    Then it swaps back and the person who served first serves to the receivers backhand side, and the process continues.

    If the points reach 6 all then it is win by 2. This means that the score can't be 7-6 it must be 8-6 or 9-7 or 10-8 etc etc.

    Hope this helps,

    Jesse

    (Also, you must switch sides every 6 points)

  3. A normal tie-breaker:

    First person to reach 7 points, win by 2.

    If tie at 6-all, play out till one person wins by 2.

    One person serves first, followed by 2 serves for the opponent, followed by 2 serves for the original server.

    Switch sides every 6 points.
