How to Stop Pop Ups: This course will teach and drill key skills to help you stop popping the ball up for opponents to attack. Classes will be individualized; we will not only work on the overall strategy, but address what you may be doing to cause the pop up.
3rd shot - Drip, Drop, Drive: This focused pickleball clinic is all about mastering the all-important third shot and knowing when to use the drop, drip, or drive to your advantage. We will break down each option, explore the strategy behind when and why to choose one over the other, and give you plenty of reps to build confidence and consistency. You will leave the clinic with a deeper understanding of the third shot and all three options firmly added to your pickleball toolbox, ready to use in real game situations.
Moving to a More Offensive Game: Take your pickleball game to the next level by learning to play more offensively in this action-focused class. We will dive into the key elements of attacking play, including when and who to target, learning how to set up a shot and when to be aggressive. Through drills and guided play, you will develop the skills and confidence to control points, put pressure on your opponents, and turn every opportunity into an advantage at the net and from the baseline. Complimentary class to this is Strengthening Your Net Plat where we review specific shots and being a threat at the net.
Round Robin with Instruction: Take your game to the next level in this high-energy, coached round robin experience! Coaches will create teams (based on skill level) throughout the evening to keep play fresh, competitive, and fun.
You’ll play multiple games with a variety of partners, giving you the opportunity to adapt, communicate, and sharpen your strategy in real-time. Coaches will be on court, offering individual instruction and feedback during play. At times, they may pause games briefly to highlight key teaching moments, reinforce proper technique, or review a specific skill.
The primary focus of the evening is game play and strategy — including smart shot selection, court positioning, partner communication, and overall court awareness. Expect a dynamic, supportive environment where you’ll compete, learn, and walk away with tools you can immediately apply in your next match.
Come ready to play, think, and elevate your game!
