Want Faster Hands ⚡️🥒🏓?
Check out the tips above in the reel as well!
1️⃣ I highly recommend drilling speed up and counter combos with a drilling partner instead of cooperative hands drills, as they simulate game situations. Doing so will help you understand where the next ball will probably be, so your mind and hands can better anticipate the next ball.
2️⃣ Be sure to always get yourself in the mental mindset that you are entering war once you or your opponent speeds up the ball, so you are never caught by surprise with your hands down.
3️⃣ Finally, focus on hitting spots and aiming low. You will win more hands battles being intentional with this focus 👍🏻
Looking forward to gaining much feedback on my progress thus far in my journey, as I will be competing in my first men`s doubles pro qualifier in 📍 Mesa, Arizona with matthew_mead_pickleball . It was a blast competing together in our training session yesterday and was great to see in person I will be competing with a solid, supportive partner!
Good luck to pballkev & maxwild__ in their pro quals today as well! They are outstanding players and better people! Their skills on display gave us excellent feedback on how to prep best for today! So cool to meet up with Kev, as we met this past summer when I was on a trip in Charleston, SC and a pleasure to meet Max for my first time 💯

Looking To Win More Rallies At The Transition Zone On The 🥒🏓 Court?
Read Below
👇🏻
People are quite often taught to try to reset the ball when they are at the transition zone hitting the ball and the opponent is at the kitchen line, as they are in a losing proposition. However, that is only if the ball is beneath their knees and they are hitting up on it. IF the ball is at their knees or higher, they have the opportunity to hit a ball linear or downward, just above the net cord, which can apply much pressure on the opponent leading to winners and set ups for winners as you will see in the clips above.
This begs the question - How Do We Hit These Shots Effectively?
1️⃣ ⚖️Be sure you are balanced, so you can react quickly and strike the ball accurately
2️⃣ 🎾Apply top spin on the ball, as that will allow you to hit the ball either linear or downward depending on where you are strike the ball from
3️⃣ ⭕️Aim for the opponents dominant hip or open space, as these are the toughest spots for the opponent to react to quickly
4️⃣ 🚶Split step forward after you strike the ball to make sure you are able to either continue to apply pressure if they hit a ball upward or linear over the net to maintain your advantage OR be able to reset a ball that is effectively countered at your feet to restore balance in the rally
I hope this may help you the next time you are on court when your opponent hits a ball at your knee or higher when you are in the transition zone! 👍🏻

Looking To Beat Players Who Are Stacking On The 🥒🏓 Court? Or Getting Beat When You Stack When You Are The Return Of Serve Team?
Read Below
👇🏻
When the return of serve team stacks, there may be more open space to drive and aggressively drop to, so be mindful to where these spaces are, as explained in the video. Some players do not stack when returning serve, only when they are serving, as sometimes it can become difficult to win rallies when the serving team becomes aware of the open spots and gets hot hitting those spots (as shown in the video; multiple times in tournaments my partners & I had to stop stacking due to such instances occurring consecutively)
This begs the question - Where Are These Open Spots?
1️⃣ The obvious spot is the line in which the serve returner is running to cut the angle off, so the serving team does not simply beat them with a drive or an aggressive drop for a winner.
2️⃣ However, because the serve returner may be so focused on covering this lane, you may be able to hit behind them as they are moving one way, yet needing to reach to the other side to volley the 4th shot. This instance occurs 3/4 times in the video.
3️⃣ For the return of serve team to prevent this, it is best for the partner of the serve returner to pinch middle and cover the middle to prevent the player hitting the 3rd shot from executing a winning shot. This is what I sensed the right handed player would do in the last instance.
4️⃣ When recognizing the movement above, it is best for the serving team to hit behind the serve returners partner, as they are focused heavily on covering the middle and may not be able to hit a successful 4th shot if you go behind them. This is what you will see in the last instance.
I hope this may help you the next time you are on court when stacking is in effect!👍🏻

Easily One Of The Most Important Skills To Develop Mentally & Physically On The 🥒🏓 Court, Especially For Transitioning 🎾Players
👇🏻
The Reset
When a ball is being hit from your opponent from high to low when you are in the transition zone or at the kitchen line, there is not enough space to allow the ball to bounce up to your hip and crank a low, hard drive. Thus, you must drill this concept mentally, so you don`t constantly whip the ball into the net or the back wall. To be able to reset the balance of power in the rally from the opponent having a significant advantage to being even, follow these tips to be able to execute this from a physical standpoint.
1️⃣ Anticipate the ball is going to be hit hard and low by placing your body weight low and wide in your glutes, so you can get underneath the ball with your body in a stable, balanced position
2️⃣ Place the paddle in front, wrist back and stable, paddle head low, paddle face slightly open, so you can absorb the pace of the ball effectively with the ball just curling over the net into the kitchen
3️⃣ If you cannot reach the ball, angle your paddle face, so the ball will just curl over the net into the kitchen, keeping a stiff wrist, and make contact shortly after the ball has bounced, as the shorter after the ball has bounced, the easier it will be to avoid mis hitting the ball
4️⃣ This is not a swing, it`s almost as if you are catching / blocking the ball. Take note of my follow through.
Let me know how this goes for you 👍🏻
