Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

Everyone makes mistakes when learning a new sport, and Pickleball is no different. In this chapter, we'll highlight some of the most common mistakes beginners make and how to avoid them. Whether it's footwork or grip, a few simple tips can make a huge difference.

For instance, many beginners neglect to cover the middle of the court, which can lead to easy points for opponents. Effective communication with your partner is vital in doubles to ensure both players know their responsibilities.
