Pickleball is played in USA, England, Canada, Brazil, China, Russia, India, Italy, Japan, Finland, Spain, and many other countries.

Keep your paddle up, don't lose your serve, serve deep - high - floating balls into the opponent's court, keep the return of serve in, keep the ball in play, clear the net by good measure, control the net/non-volley line, in doubles move parallel with your partner side to side & front to back, be patient, hit many of your shots low & down the middle or low to opponent's backhand, split-step, third - shot - drop, dink, drop-shot, lob, no unforced errors, don't back-peddle since that contributes to falling, poach, volley - volley - volley, be persistent & consistent, and give your opponents ample time to lose the point.

Play probabilities

Be a hero - not a zero

Buy time

Keep opponents back

Be smart - think ahead

Pickleball. Cheaper than therapy.

Solve the riddle ... down the middle.

Anticipate

Probe weaknesses of opponent during warm up

Pickleball 9 to 90

Punch volleys

Practice makes perfect

Avoid hogging

Avoid yelling to partner

Think of the ball as a problem

that you want to hit (give) back to your opponent(s)

When you are at the net it shields

your opponent's difficult shots at your feet

Good teammates communicate really well

Underspin to slow ball down & topspin to speed ball

#1 rule of pickleball doubles -- get a good partner

I don't like stacking

Try 3rd shot drive in place of 3rd shot drop

Stretch - Stretch - Stretch

Patience will achieve more than force

If court is slippery - don't play

Honesty is the best policy

Be polite

Practice on tennis backboard

Think

When poaching - move just before your opponent hits the ball

Read the other team

Less is more

Frequency may be more important than duration

You are what you do ... not what you say you'll do

It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves

Make your mom proud

Do the right thing

Buy low - sell high

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding"

"For we live by faith - not by sight"

2 Corinthians 5:7

... Pickleball ...
Before you speak, listen.
Before you write, think.
Before you spend, earn.
Before you invest, investigate.
Before you criticize, wait.
Before you pray, forgive.
Before you quit, try.
Before you retire, save.
Before you die, give.”

--William Arthur Ward --

Balance-Balance-Balance

Even a blind squirrel can find an acorn some of the time

Pickleball is 90% mental and the other half is physical

I would rather be lucky than good

Let that be a lesson to you. Nobody beats me 17 times in a row

Faith -> Family -> Friends -> Pickleball

Play smarter ... not harder

Observe 5.0 players

Be doers ... not watchers only

Have a game plan

Use the "chicken wing" forehand when cramped

Integrity

Be a Good Sport

Win the shot - win the point - win the match

Pickleball is a game of attrition

When needed - don't be afraid to take the lead

with your partner

Visualize positive results

Tiny leaps make big changes

Situational awareness

Work on your inner self game

Provide external positive support to others

Enjoy - Bring joy into your game/life

Never stop practicing, learning, and training

Ideas are cheap - execution is everything

The more I practice ... the luckier I get

Excellence is not just a single act but rather a habit

Persistence changes failure to achievement

Let your paddle do the talking

Learn to generate top spin on the forehand

Learn how to play "Skinny Singles" to improve

your accuracy, consistency, and non-injury.

Teach a kid how to play pickleball

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work ha

It's hard to beat a person who never gives up

If you can't outplay them, outwork them

It ain't over ... till it's over.

Make sure your worst enemy doesn't live between

your own ears

Make each day your masterpiece

A good pickle ball player plays where the ball is. A great pickleball player plays where the ball is going to be

Pickleball medals eventually gather dust.

Pickleball memories last forever.

If you fail to prepare, you've prepared to fail

It does not matter how slow you go

as long as you do not stop

Trust in the Lord with all your heart

and lean not on you own understanding (Proverbs 3:5)

I never lose. I either win ... or ... I learn

Do it -- Fix it -- Try it

Chaotic action is preferable to orderly inaction

Focus

In pickleball (unlike tennis)

minimize back swing ... maximize follow-thru

There are two kinds of perfect pickleball players:

those who are dead, and

those who have not been born yet.

It's in old kettles that one makes the best soup

Persistence can change failure

into

extraordinary achievement

Success is where preparation and opportunity meet
