In this professional lesson, players with a skill rating of 3.5 (intermediate) will focus on improving consistency with deep serves and returns, developing soft-court skills like dinking, drop shots, and resets, improving court positioning by consistently getting to the kitchen line, and learning to play smarter by anticipating shots and setting up combo plays instead of just hitting for winners.
Prerequisite: A pickleball 3.5 player is considered an advanced intermediate. This player has a solid understanding of the game's strategy and rules, can sustain medium-length rallies, hit consistent third-shot drops, and are learning to incorporate both hard and soft shots effectively. The instructor will review and contact the students for mismatched levels.
