Led by Coach Kyle, our certified instructor and 4.0 DUPR-rated player with over 1,500 hours logged. With small classes capped at 12 students across three courts, you'll receive personalized instruction and plenty of hands-on practice to quickly build confidence and foundational skills. Clinic highlights include: Rules & Scoring: Learn essential rules, scoring basics, and court etiquette. Serving and Returns: Master grips, placement, positioning, and techniques. Dinks and Volleys: Discover strategy, positioning, and effective shot execution. Third Shots & Transitions: Practice crucial third shot drops and drives to transition effectively from baseline to net. Offensive Shots: Introduction to drives, lobs, and overhead smashes. Interactive Drills & Games: Fun, targeted drills and games to reinforce skills in an engaging atmosphere. All clinics will be held at the Eisenhower High School tennis courts. The marks on the courts are only a couple of inches off actual pickleball lines, but will not have an impact on the clinic.
