Pickleball Drills & Skills Workouts for Equally Skilled Partners
Most people agree you can’t improve playing a game just by playing the game. So, if you’d like to improve how you play pickleball, come to this class. The main shots of the game will be practiced multiple times in different drills in various game-like scenarios. The shots covered include serves, return-of-serves (drives), dinks, drop shots, lobs, and volleys (including block volleys and overhead smashes). Emphasis will be placed on being more intentional about using good techniques, using smart tactics, and hitting targets. At the end of each session, time will be given to play a game applying what’s been drilled. Entering game results into DUPR (www.dupr.com) will be encouraged. Students are also encouraged to set up their smartphone and video-record themselves during the drills and games. Bring something to keep you hydrated. Eye protection is recommended but optional. Students will receive supplemental resources before each class. To get optimal benefit from these drills, come with an equally-skilled partner. Registration is for an individual and one partner. The name and e-mail address must be provided at registration for both partners. This class is not for beginners. Min. 2 pairs. Maximum 4 pairs. Instructor: Bob McIntyre, PPR Certified Pickleball Coach.
