Insporta’s tennis Laws series takes the ITF Rules of Tennis 2026 one Law at a time. Each Law has its own guide, split into parts and tests, and each guide sets out what the Law covers: the court and its lines, the ball and the racket, the scoring of a game, set and match, who serves and receives, when a point is played and when it is lost, and how officials and coaching fit into play.
What the series covers
The series runs from Law 1 (The Court) to Law 32 (Rules of Wheelchair Tennis), in the order of the ITF text.
The facts are written in original wording from the Rules, not reproduced from them, and each one carries an explanation. For the exact wording of a Law, read the ITF Rules of Tennis directly.
