In a game of course there are regulations that serves as a starting point how to play tennis as well as the boundaries of what should and should not be done in a game of tennis. When referring to the complete rules issued by the ITF (International Tennis Federation), there are many who have written on this blog. Therefore, I will explain just that generally we have to know.
1. Scoring
Let's start from the smallest unit first. Standard calculation of the numbers used in tennis are as follows:
- Zero (love)
- 15
- 30
- 40
- Games
In the event of a draw to score 40 points, then declared Deuce (Indonesia-juice) and a player trying to win two consecutive points to win the game.
The player who wins the game will get a number and must be collected to win six games. But in case of balanced figures on five points (5-5), then the game continues until 7. If the game is still well balanced in point 6 (6-6), then the game continues at the Tie Break calculation.
Tie Break happens to score the game 6-6 and the player who has the serve to start the turn from the right side of the field players (Deuce Court) once and then moves on his opponents serve, who started from the left side of the field (ad court) with the two occasions and further each earn two chances serve.
If a player has won his game up to 6 or, as above, then the player is said to win a set. Standards used in tennis tournaments applying two sets of systems, namely:
- Best of Three: two sets of players need to win games.
- Best of Five: players needed three sets to win the game.
2. Services and Recipients
Service is the opening blow of a point which made the players on the court and receiver Deuce is the player who received a blow to serve on the diagonal of the players or both serve on the Deuce court. Players who perform services are required to hit the ball toward the opposing players on the Deuce court line service areas.
Players get twice the opportunity to perform a service. But when the service hit the net and fell on the area inside the opponent's service area, the service is repeated according to ration the service (eg if the second service when the ball touches the net, then the service is repeated as the second service and get a chance one time service again).
For double, the first player to serve is determined before the game is played and as well as recipients. After the game finished, then the receiver turns into a service holder then rotates back for a second player of the team that first service control service and so on.
Services performed in line behind the baseline, on the right side of the field (Deuce Court) digonal headed toward the opponent's service area. The player who stepped on the baseline line or entering the area, tennis racket swing at hand to perform services considered to make errors (foot faults) and points to the receiving party.
3. Regions and lines game
For single game or an individual, the game is the minus zone Alley area, while for the game playing a double or a double line covers the entire field line inside the baseline.
The line is the boundary of region games. If the entire section or part of the ball touches the line then the ball game because the ball touched otherwise enter the field bounded by a line.
4. Pts

• Perform two errors in service
• Unable to hit the ball after more than one occasion the ball hits the ground.
