In the United States it’s reported there are more than 3,000,000 active pickleball players.  Pickleball is a blend of badminton, ping-pong and tennis. It’s played on a court measuring 20x44 split by a tennis style net. A court can be set up to be permanent or temporary. The equipment for pickleball is relatively inexpensive, players use a paddle and wiffle-like ball. You can play singles or doubles. The rules are simple, and the game is easy to learn.  Course Description: The BEGINNER PROGRAM (BEG) is for individuals that have never picked up a pickleball paddle or that have limited playing court time. This program will give a student the opportunity to build their game from the ground up before developing bad habits or poor stroke mechanics. You will learn the rules of pickleball, how to keep score, how to grip a paddle, the difference between a drive, drop and dink and how to hit a groundstroke, serve, volley, soft shot, overhead, lob and the 3rd shot drop. This course is essential for all new players that want to have more fun learning and playing pickleball. All equipment will be provided during a class session including paddles, nets, and balls. All you need to do is register, show up, wear tennis shoes (not running shoes) and be prepared to have fun and learn.  ADVANCED BEGINNER/LOW INTERMEDIATE (AB/LI)- for players that have taken the       Beginner class or are less than a 3.25.  The INTERMEDIATE PROGRAM (INT) is for a player that is greater than 3.25, but not yet a 4.0. If you have never taken a lesson or need a tune up or have questions regarding court awareness, stroke development (drive, drop and dink), or shot selection this program is designed for you. The program will review your shot mechanics, focus on how to deal with bangers, how to tactically transition to the non-volley line, work on consistency, court positioning, footwork, paddle control, game-play strategy and share fundamental knowledge of stacking and poaching. See you on the court soon.MEET THE Pickleball D3 DIRECTOR & LEAD CLINICIAN:  Donald Van Dyne is a Professional Pickleball Registry (PPR)- Certified PRO; the Director of Pickleball D3 Management Systems and the Lead Clinician and Pickleball Program Manager at The Mill Works in Westford, MA.
