Pickleball Boot Camps are fun and engaging way to take your game to the next level, expand your knowledge of the game, and develop your individual skills. Every session will be lead by one of our IPTPA or PPR Certified Pickleball Instructors.
Boot Camps are 5-weeks of intensive training, including 10 hours (2-hrs per session) of court time. We will start out with a player Evaluation and Assessment to establish a baseline. Sessions will build from your baseline and be geared to help your knowledge of the doubles game and the necessary communication skills needed to be competitive with your partner.
In addition, we will teach you the "3rd. Shot Drop" - hitting it from the base line, from mid-court, and defending against your opponents. Additionally, we will teach you how to be a SHARK at the net (NVZ) by improving your dinks, volleys, and put-away shots. Also, how to slow down the game by resetting the ball and will round-off by introducing you to our ball-feeding machine - drilling your weakest shots. The consistency of your game and effectiveness playing with your partner will improve during these sessions!
