Pickleball Doubles Practice Techniques & Positioning Strategy Guide Launched

Experience Pickleball has released a new guide covering how to play a doubles game for beginners - with tips, techniques, and practice advice.

New York, United States - December 21, 2023 /PressCable/ —

As the popularity of pickleball continues to grow, the latest guide discusses the fundamentals of doubles play, including alternating serving turns, the double bounce rule, and the impact of the 'kitchen' or no-volley zone.

The new guide points out the key differences between singles pickleball and doubles - noting that even the scoring changes, because the server number is listed alongside the points - and concludes with specific tips and techniques for training and match preparation.

Over the last year, membership in the USA Pickleball Association has grown 30 percent, signaling the sport's mounting popularity nationwide. The organization's database now lists over 1,500 new places to play across the country, showing the proliferation of pickleball courts and facilities. With more people taking up the game every day, the Experience Pickleball guide will allow players to progress faster and have more fun playing doubles.

The guide explains the unique rules and format of doubles pickleball - with teams alternating serving, and switching sides after each game - and delves into doubles strategy regarding court positioning, shot selection, and communication between partners.

One of the main focal points in the guide is the double bounce rule. On the serve, after one side lets the ball bounce, the opposing side must allow it to bounce too before returning it. This opens up offensive and defensive options as volleys are not permitted until after the ball has bounced twice.

Communication is also vital in doubles play, the guide explains. It stresses the importance of developing coordinated play between doubles partners, as playing in tandem rather than as two individual competitors is key.

For players seeking to maximize their doubles success, the guide offers insights on positioning and poaching. It analyzes optimal court coverage and ways to control the transition zone. Doubles players must move forward decisively when required while avoiding 'no man's land.'

The guide's author, Damien Dansel, states: "Playing with a teammate instead of playing a singles game is a much better introduction to pickleball, so if you have someone who already knows how to play pickleball, try joining them and forming a pair to compete with others."
