It's The Little Things
By Mark Renneson

Here's a video I made from a single point US Open; two heavyweights, Kyle Yates and Tyson McGuffin going toe-to-toe. One of the things that I love about this vid is that there is so much to see in such a short period of time: the set-up and offensive serve by Tyson, the attempted counter by Kyle, the immediate read after Tyson hits his pass and his opportunistic recovery to the net. Finally, the decisive put away with innovative technique. I hope you like it as much as I do.

Speaking of the longest running, greatest giveaway in pickleball history; this week you can earn bonus entries by telling us which prize you would prefer. A trip for two to sunny California or be among the first to gain access to Pickleball Coaching International.

Article: Don't Make the Warm-Up All About You

No, this isn't a lecture about being a considerate opponent who gives the other team lots of balls to hit. This is about an under-used opportunity to tilt the odds in your favour.

While hitting balls prior to your match starting is a good way for you to get loose, it is also an amazing chance to acquire some intelligence on your opponents. Here are 5 things you should look for before the game even starts:

Glaring Weaknesses. Are there any shots that your opponent clearly hits poorly? Did they miss every practice drop they hit? Did their volleys always pop up when they received a fast ball? If they hit a certain shot badly before there is any pressure, plan on testing them early in the match to see if they can rise to the occasion.

Movement. How agile does your opponent look? Are they moving easily around the court of do they look stiff and a little cold? If they aren't getting to balls before the second bounce, that can be a sign that they aren't feeling very fast and that you should plan on running them.
