Pro Pickleball Tip

Narrow the Playing Field! Want to Improve Your Pickleball?

Skinny singles is the answer. Play on half a standard pickleball court, forcing precision and quick reflexes. (10 feet instead of 20 feet wide)

Key Tips:

• Strategic Serving: Aim deep, and target weaknesses.
• Powerful Returns: Set the tone with strong, controlled returns and get to the non-volley zone line.
• Master the Middle: Dominate with consistent, pressure-inducing shots.
• Keep it Low: Force high returns with low shots.

Remember: Patience is key. Embrace the challenge, have fun, and watch your game improve!(link)

Pickleball News

Pickleball Roots from Tennis?: Pickleball, America's fastest-growing sport, shares many similarities with tennis, including playing style and some skills.

Interestingly, a whopping 90% of professional pickleball players have a background in tennis, either playing recreationally, competitively in college or professionally, or even coaching the sport. This strong connection helps explain why the two sports are so often compared.

However, there's also a small portion (10%) of pro pickleball players who haven't played tennis at all. These athletes come from diverse backgrounds in other sports or started their court sports journey with something entirely different. (link)
