  1. Pickleball Coaching Philosophy!

  2. Pickleball Spin: The Basics Ipickleballed my way from Florida to California last month in “The Pickleball Guru Van” (as my daughter has called it since she was two).  Along the way there were several questions about how to deal with spin.  Since my dance moves are limited, I’ll stick with pickleball spin.  When someone is firing a spin, how do you know which one’s coming? It’s actually surprisingly straightforward.  Your opponent’s paddle tells you what to expect. If the paddle moves from up high down to the side, it’s a SIDE SPIN.   If the paddle comes from under the ball and rolls up, it’s a TOP SPIN. The most commonly used spins in pickleballare the SIDE SPIN  and the TOP SPIN.

  3. PICKLEBALL SPIN: SIDE SPIN : Your opponent hits a side spin on a serve or return of serve.  Which way will the ball go after the bounce? It’s all about handedness.  A right handed player slices and the ball goes to your left after the bounce.A left handed player slices and the ball goes to your right.  The side spin balls tend to skip when they bounce.   The spin slice is mostly used from the back of the court rather than the NVZ.  Top level players use it in a cross court dink duel in hopes of forcing the opponent to strike the ball at a lower point. PICKLEBALL SPIN: TOP SPIN : You see your opponent take the paddle from low to high. Get ready for the top spin. This ball tends to pop up after the bounce. The top spin is generally used between mid-court and NVZ, but is most effective only when or if the ball is within 4-8 inches from the top of the net.  Any higher and it gives the opponent a chance for a slam. Don’t use a top spin in a servebecause the point of impact of your serve needs to be lower than your navel, which is difficult to do hitting a top spin.

  4. SIDE SPIN  and TOP SPIN  So how do you hit these spin shots?    Any spin shot that comes your way gets hit in the same manner.  Slow down. Bend your knees.  Watch the ball pop high or skip to a side.  After it reaches the peak and starts falling–that’s when you strike.  On the way down because the spin has spun itself out! Once you’ve become comfortable with receiving and giving spins, move to the next level.  Strike the ball right after the bounce–on a half volley or short hop.  This early hit stops the spin action—something I learned from playing Cricket. If you want to review this information and read more, check out my original post: How to Play Against Someone Who Spins the Ball Then, go and try it out.  Let me know how you do.  And remember.  No matter what, life is short and it’s only pickleball, so have fun with it.
