  1. You always start on the right (duece court) you alternate, so the next point would be on the left (ad court


  2. They are called the Deuce and Advantage (or just Ad.) sides.  The right side of the line is the Deuce side, the left side is the Ad. side.  Start from the Right or Deuce side and alternate after each point.  love all, 30-0, 0-30, 40-15, 15-40 and deuce are all from the deuce side. 15-0,0-15, 30-15, 15-30, 40-0, 0-40, and advanage are from the Ad. side.

  3. huh?

  4. Actually you HAVE to start on the right side of the court. After the first point its 15-0 or 0-15. Then you continue on the left side. Then you have 15-15 30-0 0-30. Then you go to the right side again. Then the score is 30-15 15-30 40-0 0-40. Then you go back to the left side. Then the score will become 40-15 30-30 15-40 or game. If the game is not over yet then you go to the right side. You con tine until the game is over.

    If the score is deuce then you ALWAYS begin on the right side or the Deuce side. You have to win two points before the game is over. If you win the first point then you have the advantage and you go to the left side or the ADD side to play another point. If your opponent won the point then they have the advantage and you have to prevent them from winning the next point. Whoever scores two consecutive points in a row wins.

    Hope this helps <3

  5. If you are facing the net the right side is the deuce side and the left side is called the add side.  To figure out what side you add the numbers together.  15=1, 30=2, 40=3.  If the number is odd then you serve on the add side.  If the number is even then you serve on the deuce side.

  6. it doesn't matter from which side you will begin your service,but every time you serve you must change side

    e.x the first service will be from the left and the second from the right and the third again from left e.t.c

    and with the deuce it's the same
