Rulebook
Match rules
Short, clear, and built to keep the tournament moving all night.
Match format
3 games
Or 10 minutes. Whichever comes first.
1
Basics
Standard padel rules
Matches follow standard padel rules: serve, rebounds, walls, and normal point continuity.
2
Format
First to 3 games
The first team to reach 3 games wins the match, as long as that happens before the time limit.
3
Scoring
15 · 30 · 40, no advantage
Games are scored 15, 30, and 40. At deuce there is no advantage: it is decided by a sudden-death point.
4
Time
10-minute maximum
If 10 minutes are up before either side reaches 3 games, the match ends with the current score.
5
Pace
Next team ready
The team playing next must be ready beside their court. That also helps track whether the 10 minutes are up or someone has reached 3 games. Time is tight — help us cut the dead time 🙏
6
Tie
Golden point
If the match ends tied, one final ball is played. The team that wins that point wins the match.
