Padel scoring mirrors tennis with a few modern twists. Points progress as 0, 15, 30, and 40. When both sides reach 40, you reach deuce.

With the golden point rule (used in most amateur and many pro events), the next point after deuce wins the game — no advantage phase. Without golden point, a player must win two consecutive points from deuce.

A set is won by reaching six games with a two-game lead. At 6-6, a tiebreak to 7 points (win by 2) decides the set. In a best-of-three match, the third set is often replaced by a super tiebreak to 10 points.

Doubles adds serving rotation: after each game, serve passes to the next player in rotation — typically A1, B1, A2, B2, then back to A1.

FamPoints's live scorer handles all of this automatically, including serve rotation for doubles matches.
