Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI start by asking questions to see how much experience the beginner has? Then I go into shots and strategy if they have experience. If they donāt have experience, then I go over rules and let them play a couple games to get the hang of keeping score and playing skinny singles. I also asked them to go to the park a lot more to play wreck games, letting the players they play with know that they are beginners.
Lesson 2-3Serve and returns, drives and drops, dinks and speed ups to volleys with some skinny singles, gameplay in the last 15 min.
Lesson 4-10Kitchen drills, transition, zone drills, and baseline drill drills for consistency along with kitchen games, transition games, and baseline games. You can also expect a lot of backhand drills.
Lesson 11+Kitchen games to increase hand, speed with volleys (slow and fast) to forehand and backhand. Increasing consistency with flatter hits and blocks to keep the ball low over the net.
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonI would ask Questions testing their Pickleball IQ. Understanding exactly what they want to work on and using their athletic ability to their advantage.
Lesson 2-3You can expect to raise your level based on the amount of practice you put in outside of Coaching. I would expect advanced players that want to get better join tournaments and play a lot outside of Coaching.
Lesson 4-10You can expect advanced shot selection, technique, and ball placement.
Lesson 11+As we continue our lessons, Drills will become more about footwork ball, striking, and good contact. Technique for advanced shots and review of the fundamentals in consistency
Youth players
Working with kidsWhen I work with kids, we always warm up. I ask questions to determine their athletic ability and then we focus on technique and then develop developing their Pickleball IQ.
Working with teenagersI always go through Questions determining how often they play who theyāre playing and what they struggle with. We will work on things to advance their game through good technique and shot selection. ļæ¼
