Here’s a situation that happened today during a league play match tie breaker. During a rally, one of our doubles players hit a great cross court shot. The net opponent went to get it but missed it and her partner returned it. It appeared to one of our players that it double bounced. That player returned the shot cross court and asked, out loud, as the ball was going towards our opponents “did that ball double bounce?”. One of the opposing players returned the ball cross court to our player who asked the question. Our player hit it back to their net player who dumped it into her net. Then this net player called a Hinderance on our player for asking if the double bounce happened. That player then said our players lost the point! After reading the hinderance rules, I think she is mistaken because it did not cause their player a hinderance (since she successfully returned the mall) and it wasn’t called immediately when it happened. What is your interpretation of this situation as it relates to the hinderance rule??

Ok since I’m not a pro I’m guessing that the opponents who hit a double bounce ball have to make the call, not us, correct? Hindrances can be called by either side at any time, but if you hit the ball as it moved past you to your partner-that’s your own side of the court call?

I play to improve my game, to have fun, socialize, and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. I’d let the team who received the ball make the call. I don’t care what the call is; sportmanship is often cast aside by players who feel compelled to win no matter what. I don’t let myself get angered or upset by trivial things. I simply let little things go and work on major matters. Those who constantly get upset by the little things in life seem to be those who barely notice that they’re needlessly wasting their lives. I smile, let it go, and get on with the game.

The call is made by the side of the potential infraction. In this case the side that made the call was out of line and should lose the point.
