Competition method
Squash competitions are divided into two categories: team competition and individual competition. The team competition is divided into men's team and women's team.
Squash games use squash rackets to serve and hit the ball, and the game should be played in the squash room. The purpose of a squash match is to win each round through one's own serve or return, forcing the opponent to fail to return the ball as required. Whenever one team commits a foul or fails to return the ball before it bounces twice, the other team wins. Whenever one side serves and wins the round, that side gets 1 point. If the server loses the round, it loses the right to serve. A squash match adopts a best-of-three-game system, with 15 points divided into one game. The first to win two games wins the game. If the two sides are tied one to one, a tiebreaker will be played. The tiebreaker was scored at 11 points. [8]
Serving rules
1. Decide to serve
The winner of the coin toss may choose to serve first or receive first in the first game. The loser of the coin toss serves first in the second game. The server in the third game shall be the one with the most points in the first two games. If both sides have the same total score in the first two games, the coin will be re-flip.
2. Start serving
The server must stand in the service area. Neither the ball nor his feet can cross the line, but his feet can step on the line. No one may step outside the teeing area until the ball has passed the service line. The server must wait for the referee to announce the score or "second serve" before starting to serve.
3. Serving action
The act of serving begins with the server throwing the ball on the ground and hitting it before it bounces twice. The action must be consistent. After the ball is hit, it should first hit the front wall and then fall directly or through one side wall to the floor behind the back service line without touching the back service line.
4. Prepare to catch the ball
After the referee announces the score or the "second serve", the server can only serve when he sees that the receiver is ready to receive the ball.
5. Delay
The 10-second rule applies to both the server and the receiver, that is, both parties are responsible for being ready to serve and receive the ball within 10 seconds after the referee announces it. The server who delays the ball for more than 10 seconds loses the right to serve, and the receiver who delays the ball for more than 10 seconds loses 1 point.
6. Doubles serve
Before each game, both sides should inform the referee of the order in which the two players on their side are serving, and abide by this order throughout the game; only one person from the starting team of each game can serve. Have the right to serve. The server's partner should stand in the doubles service area with his back to the side wall and cannot move out until the ball crosses the back service line, otherwise the server will lose the right to serve.
