PICKLEBALL STUDY HALL is a two-hour session where we study smart pickleball playing strategies. It’s a mix of classroom education with on-court demonstration. Perfect for players gearing up for tournament play and for those wanting to become a better recreational player.
Instructors Sandy Halkett (bio) and John Moore (bio) will begin the session with classroom education. They will share intermediate skill level strategies in a playful, engaging way that makes learning fun. The classroom curriculum will include:
- Anatomy of a Pickleball Point
- How to Dominate at the Winner’s Line
- How to Escape off the Loser’s Line
- When to Drop or Drive the 3rd Shot
- Where to Hit 3rd Shot Drops
- Effective Dinking Strategies
- Stirring the P.O.T. at the Kitchen
- And more…
After learning in a classroom setting, players will move to the indoor courts and experience the education with on-court demonstration. The concepts discussed in the classroom will come to life on the courts to enhance your learning journey. There will be plenty of time for Q&A so we can geek out talking about winning pickleball strategies.
Pickleball Study Hall will conclude back in the classroom with a Pop Quiz and you’ll learn the “10 Demandments of a Solid Pballer.” All attendees will receive a Pickleball Study Hall summary handout.
