2. Keep eyes on the court. Move swiftly behind the ball.
3. Vary your dinks' placement to confuse opponents.

The Eephus or lob serve is a unique strategy for serves. It's a great change of pace option. The floating ball gives the returner time to think, which might cause them to go for too much on a return. They might try to hit a perfect return that results in a net ball, or one that sails long.#Pickleball #Tips

The Johns Bros strategy has led them to more men's doubles titles than any in the game. Collin explains how that strategy was developed and what makes it so hard to beat: “We’ve worked out a game style that allows the best player in the world (Ben) to touch the ball a lot and put a lot of pressure.”“People have not been able to crack that code very often. I feel we’re a team that is very hard to beat. Until somebody’s able to figure out a strategy that will consistently beat us, we’re going to keep playing exactly the same way”, said.#Pickleball #Podcast #Pro #News

Mixed Doubles is like any other thing in Pickleball…It’s a Skill. You have to practice mixed doubles strategy in rec if you want to play well in mixed doubles at a tournament.This goes against the unwritten “rec rules” of playing the court instead of isolating a person, but it’s necessary to get better at mixed. If you feel weird about isolating players in rec, find players that have similar goals as you (of wanting to get better in mixed) and play with them! #Tips Let me know what you all think below!

3.5 Pickleball is ALL about OUTLASTING your opponent! Even if you have a ball you can attack (which you should) if you just dink it back, and hit a few more dinks, chances are your opponents are going to leave a ball even higher or put a dink in the net.In other words, just keeping the ball in play at 3.5 is going to be tough for your opponents to handle! This strategy especially works for tournament play at 3.5 when you know your opponents should be at that skill level (most of the time). #Pickleball #Tips

Lea Jansen explained on the 'It Feels Right' podcast the strategy with which she nearly beat Anna Leigh Waters in the singles final at the 2023 Texas Open ⬇️For Jansen, it was all about taking away the angles:🎯 She elected to return the ball to the middle of the court to eliminate passing shot angles.✅ The key was to keep these balls deep so the passing shot was coming from behind the baseline.💪🏻 Then Jansen could use the length of the court to her advantage instead of trying to play side to side.#Pickleball #Podcast #Pro #News

@ZSistersPickleball - Anne and Laurel had a blast at a pickleball jamboree in Marin City, CA! The eight-player round robin tournament was held on the new colorful courts and was a great opportunity to meet new people and play with and against everyone.

Overall, it was a great day of pickleball competition and strategy!Put on by Pickleball of Marin, this event is a great option for pickleball players of all skill levels in Marin County, CA. https://youtube.com/shorts...

Converting Backhands IntroductionWhat are the strokes of the game ? Forehand, volley, dinks ,drives, smashes, lobs, passing shots. But am I missing something? Yup its the backhand. Backhand shots are considered the most easy points. Until one reaches 4.0 the main strategy is to keep the ball on opponents backhand and move forward to volley. That's called the textbook game. Just so simple yet effective for 4.0 and below categories.Converting a backhandThe most scoring part of pickleball is backhand. No one naturally knows how to hit a backhand unlike forehand. And before we jump into the main content I just want to make clear that these tips are only to be experimented on baseline or when you are deep outside court, do not try these on volley.STEPBACKSStepbacks are one of the most interesting shots. In this shot the player tries to comfort himself with balls level, height and position by having his Playing side foot to be steepened aback adjacent to his non playing foot. I know this can be confusing so let me break it down for you.When in between a point you maybe facing a problem that the ball is above your waist level when in no mans land, in this situation have your right leg(for right handed) taken parallel to left foot facing the toes to sideline. Now you have made enough space to roll or drive the ball. For the aftermath you can have you left foot to be stepped aback and get ready a step back or move ahead with flow of the ball.While converting a backhand into a forehand you must know how to do a stepback. All you have to do to convert the backhand is, have our right foot cross a bit more to left rather than having it right behind the left foot and follow the same procedure to get ready for rest of the battle.PreswingPreswing is just a part of stepbacks. As the name suggests all you gotta do is have your paddle behind your shoulder line and that's it. Finding the right time for preswing is just a natural thing which cant be expressed through words. You rather have to feel it.So now dont wait go on the court and try it out!
