How to Defend Like the Pros!

Oct 12, 2023

Hey!

Today's edition is short.

I've been on the road so much recently, writing took a back seat. 

BUT, I still wanted to share a couple things with you today!

Before we keep going, welcome back to another edition of the blog. If you’re new to the blog and want to go back and check out past editions, go here!

Today’s edition has two parts: 

1. A Helpful Tip (Video) – How to Defend Like the Pros.

2. My Journey Playing Pro – Pickleball at The Orchard!

A Helpful Tip (Video):

My 4.0 friend Tyler was bad at defense. Then, I showed him one technique pros use to stay alive in points. 

Now, he's way better. Not great, yet. But wayyy better than he was before! 

The good news for you is, I filmed our training session together so you can improve too!

Enjoy!👇

My Journey Playing Pro Pickleball: 

I played in our season opener on Tuesday night at The Orchard!

Our team, the Tempe Tornadoes, defeated the Surprise Stingers.

1-0. Let’s go!

My favorite part was the men's doubles match and tie breaker that starts here!

Until next week,

Kyle

PS: A fun stat that I'm pretty sure is my career high. I had 11 Ernes in the 4th quarter game to 15 & the tie break. Yeah, 11. 😂. If you ever want to learn how I know when to go for it, this video exists ;).
