The 10-second rule under USA Pickleball says that, once the score has been called by the server, the server has 10 seconds to serve the ball. This is true even if the receiving team is not yet in the correct position. However, the server should wait until the receiving team is ready to receive the ball.
The serve is initiated with at least one foot behind the baseline; neither foot may contact the baseline or court until after the ball is struck. The serve is made diagonally crosscourt and must land within the confines of the opposite diagonal court. Only one serve attempt is allowed (let serves are allowed).
Ing to the rules, any ball that touches any part of a line is considered “in.” This applies to all lines, including the baseline, sideline, and centerline. However, when serving, a ball that lands on the kitchen line is “out” because the serve cannot land in the kitchen.

Pickleball court lines and layout A pickleball court is 20 feet wide x 44 feet long (22 feet long on either side of the net). The non-volley zone (NVZ, or the kitchen) is seven feet long (from the net to the top of the kitchen line) on either side of the net and 20 feet wide — from sideline to sideline.
Making sure you follow the rules The serve must land in the diagonally opposite service area and must clear the entirety of the non-volley zone. A serve that lines on the line of the NVZ is a fault. Your feet must be correctly placed behind the baseline.
NEVER yell at, swear at, or say a hostile or sarcastic word to your partner or your opponent in anger. We repeat, NEVER! Trash-talking, which is teasing your opponents in a fun and lighthearted way, is part of pickleball.
