Beginner training plan
Your first lessonFirst I will ask you about your strengths and weaknesses and if there’s something in particular that you want to work on.
And then normally I start almost every lesson with a few points of skinny singles to identify any strengths and weaknesses and what we should work on.
From there I will give you a few tips and then run some drills to work on them. Throughout the lesson I will continue to give you tips as I identify ideas to help with your game, and we may adjust the drills but still mainly focusing on one particular skill.
Lesson 11+We continue to work on every aspect of your game until you are a well rounded, 4.5+ player, and if we have nothing left to work on, we can just continue to run drills or play games.
Lesson 2-3In each upcoming lesson, we will focus on a different skill that I see that needs to be worked on, following the same format as the first lesson: beginning with skinny singles and following with some tips and drills.

Most lessons follow the same format as the first lesson: beginning with skinny singles to identify your strengths and weaknesses, and following with some tips and drills to target a specific weakness at a time.

What you need to bringIf we’re going to train indoors at the Picklr, all you need to bring are court shoes, and I would also recommend indoor lenses to protect your eyes.
For outdoors, make sure you wear weather appropriate attire. In winter it may get cold, but you may also warm up underneath so make sure you can shed a layer.
A hat and sunglasses may be helpful, Sunscreen or a light outerwear will help protect you from the sun as well.
Tennis our pickleball shoes would be best, but running shoes are ok for occasional use as well. But long term, the rough court surface will wear down your shoe tread.
What I can bringAt the Picklr, they have a plethora of paddle demos to try, as well as ball carts, lots of balls to drill with and ball tubes to pick up the balls.
I also have some extra paddles and balls that we can use, and I carry some facial sunscreen as well. If you have any extra equipment that you’d like to bring, feel free to bring it.
