    Literally just started playing pickle ball with some other beginner coworkers and I didn’t even realize how MANY mistakes I was making.
    After my first few sessions I started paying closer attention to the other players around and I knew I had so much to learn beyond just learning the rules and whatnot.
    I knew playing up could be really beneficial..
    But I didn’t know how to do it always felt easier to play mid.
    Anyway. I’ve learned a TON thanks to your videos and can’t wait for our next sesh so I can implement.. 🙏🏼

    “Communication” is the toughest adjustment for me as a tennis player transitioning to pb. Verbal communication between my opponents while the ball is on or en route to our side of the court would be hinderances in tennis, but is allowed in pb. When I am setting up to hit my shot and my opponent says to his partner, “good shot” or “that’s good!” (before the ball actually lands), that definitely distracts me. If my partner says “yours”, it hurts rather than helps me ESPECIALLY if the ball is obviously mine! If the ball is between us, then by the time he says “yours” it’s too late to get a good shot.
    I love to communicate BEFORE the game or BETWEEN rallies. The only thing I say or respond to while the ball is in play is “mine” or “bounce it” (let it go out). To eliminate confusion, I like to get on the same page before the game regarding certain things: who takes “middle” balls (forehand down the middle or designated player (if his backhand is better than my forehand, then he should take those); if I go behind you to retrieve a lob over your head, please switch immediately to the side I vacated-don’t wait for me to call “switch”. If you cross the center line to take a shot, stay there-I will take the side you left without waiting to see if you can make it back. I like aggressive play, so I have no problems with my partner poaching even if the ball is coming to me. BUT, he should do this only if he can do something good (win the point or put the opponents in trouble). It’s no good if he has to stretch or dive for the ball because we are then at a disadvantage if he fails to win or trouble them.
    I apologize for the book I just wrote, lol. But lastly, I want to say that you are a fabulous instructor who makes things easy to understand and learning a pleasure!

      This is the wrong model of cognitive distraction. So many people just can not bring themselves to say "mine" until there is active conflict brewing. Then of course every time they say "mine" they instantly mess up, because of the unusual act of saying "mine" right at the point where you already had the extra cognitive load of coping with active friction.
      If you make a habit out of saying "mine" and "yours" early and often in a mild voice, within a few hours, it's no different than the sound of the ball bouncing. Do you even notice the sound of the ball bouncing? No, because we habituate to routine events extremely quickly.
      There's a style of player whose mental process is basically just to get the ball over the net, hitting it harder if possible, or into a gap is there is an obvious gap, and not thinking much beyond that. This person is a lousy QB for calling "mine" and "yours".
      Another style of player knows what you are trying to accomplish with your positioning at every stage of the rally, and what risks you create (coming back again) depending on which partner hits a shot to different places. This kind of player makes a far better QB.
      Sometimes I want to take the ball to steer it out of obvious danger. Other times I want my partner to hit the ball, so I can leap into a giant gap and plug the ocean. Quite often I just want to tuck the ball soft and short, safely behind the net, so that we can finish advancing to the kitchen line as a partnership, in a calm and orderly manner. I poach many balls at mid court away from a lower level partner when the correct amount of aggression is none whatsoever. Other than that, I usually prefer to leave the ball to my partner so that I can move forward and make myself big, front and center.
      The QB role is somewhat more difficult than this video makes out. Getting used to regular communication, however, ought to be the least concern on anyone's list.

    • @netplayer23
      @netplayer23 2 месяца назад

      @@afterthesmash I beg to differ. I DO notice the sound of the ball bouncing! That doesn’t disturb me because I expect it. Having my partner say ANYTHING against a background of (human) silence is distracting. If players determine before play that “forehands” will take the middle, or the better player will take the middle whether forehand or backhand, or the player closest to the kitchen will take any ball down the middle as a volley, then communication is UNNECESSARY. we can also eliminate the “switch” call if both parties understand that if one of them goes behind the other to retrieve a lob, the other person switches automatically. Communication for the sake of communication is useless and superfluous.

    Shoulder fly let hit high only applies to beginner/intermediate. I've hit it over the shoulder or even over the head with heavy topspin and it lands inside the backcourt. It surprises people who are not used to playing with me. My swing mechanics are good though through tennis.

    Hello Kyle and thank you for ALL the mistakes you should..... NOT MAKE. Me coming from a decade of playing Racquetball, I have to remind myself constantly NOT to do a huge swing and smash the PB. I have some great 'coaches' , being a total beginner, who point out immediately what I can approve on. Your videos echo a lot of what they recommend, so it's a win-win situation to go on the court and actually practice play...then come home to do the Theory learning while watching your videos.
    You stand out with your quality videos, jokes included, within the ridiculous quantity of videos out there which more confuse than help.
    Keep up the great work

    "Stubborn positioning" is my #1 flaw. I play with a bunch of ppl that are "over the net" players, and they don't work the kitchen at all. I think I need to stop staying at the kitchen line and wait for them to make unforced errors.

    • @netplayer23
      @netplayer23 Год назад +1

      The POINT of communication is to help your team! Distracting your partner does NOT help your team. Any ball coming at me, I will take. If it’s coming at you, then YOU take it. If it’s in between us, then we will know who takes it because we decided BEFORE the match even started: forehands, closest to the net, or better player (a 4.0 player’s backhand is probably better than a 3.0 player’s forehand! IMO, other than “mine” or “bounce it” (allow the ball to hit the ground before hitting an “out” ball), communication should be limited to discussing strategy between points.

    So cute that you communicate with every single ball; I am a very, very beginner, but that is what I do too, even though it is clear shot for my partner! I never took lessons (much more prefer your awersome tips here ♥), plus I am not good at taking sports' lessons, I like to learn as I go and by trying different positions, etc. that is how I learn best. So, back to the point, I thought I was been "too vocal" by saying "yours" or "mine" all the time, so cool you do the same! Now, if anyone has a problem with that, I will say that Kyle K does the same! Hahaha

    @joshc.6706 10 месяцев назад

    My biggest issue by far is not letting outballs go out. So since I come from a tennis background I was taught to have fast twitchy reflexes at the net. In pickleball it’s nice but it causes me to instinctively hit anything near me because I just think the court is so much bigger than it is.
    So one thing I do from playing tennis. I’ll see players look at their partners when their partner is hitting the ball. I never do this. You see it a lot when a team is returning and when dinking. I feel like it’s not too beneficial to do. You don’t gain an advantage by seeing the ball be hit on your side, by your partner but you also take your eyes off your opponent. They could move in that split second and now you’re a step behind in response. Also if there’s a miss hit I’d rather get hit in the side or the back of the head than the face

Love beating these 4.5 -4.7 players just by keeping ball in play. I tried to hit thru them like most tennis players first try. As a lefty i found i can dink them to death and wait for mistakes. I do hate that the serve is so meaning less in this dumb ass drinking game and i stlll step into the kitchen because i had a lifetime of moving forward to cover the net. I really enjoy your videos.

    During play yesterday, both teams became confused on the score later on in the game. One of the veteran players tried to teach us how to "back into" the score by the odd/even of the score and how it related to who was serving, 1 or 2. I searched through your videos and have tried watching other videos on the odd/even scoring of the game. None of the current videos give us a good example. Help! Or, was she wrong in her advice?
    I think I understood: when I win a serve, I then applied the "1" to the 0-0-1 score when I move over to the left court. That is how the score should be "odd" on the left, and "even" on the right?

    …about backing up when you expect to get killed after a pop up. I see too many people who are just looking for a reason to back up and play their whole game in no man’s land. Nearly 100% of the time that you are moving backwards on any shot you will either hit in the net (usually),or you pop it up again. Make sure you give yourself time to get set before the opponent hits it, you don’t want to still be moving back and trying to hit it, you have no chance with these.

    • @thatpickleballguy
      @thatpickleballguy  Год назад
