A Simple Guide to Practicing Pickleball — The Business Way

Whether you're building a business or your backhand, it's all about doing the small things right — again and again.

If you're just getting into pickleball or looking to sharpen your game, here’s a simple four-drill routine that brings structure to your practice — and maybe even your strategy mindset.

Start with the right gear. At Serve, we provide paddles and balls that help players level up with control, speed, and consistency.

Drill 1: The KPI Drill (Hit Your Targets)

Pick a spot on the court and aim for it 20 times.
Your goal: land at least 16 shots in the target zone.

This drill is about control and tracking progress — just like setting and reviewing your weekly goals at work. Focus leads to improvement.

Drill 2: Dinking with a Partner

Stand at the net and practice soft, short shots.
Focus on control and timing — not speed.

Dinking teaches patience, precision, and awareness. Like good teamwork, it’s all about being thoughtful, reactive, and in sync with your partner.

Drill 3: Fast Volleys at the Net

Volley with a partner using quick, short hits.
Try one-minute rounds to improve reactions and decision-making.

This drill builds speed, confidence, and control under pressure — great for tight matches and real-life fast-paced moments alike.

Drill 4: Footwork Basics

Practice side steps, split steps, and staying in position.

Good footwork is the foundation of every strong shot. If you’re not in the right place, you can’t make the right move — on the court or in the boardroom.

Train with Intent. Play with Serve.

The right drills, done regularly, help build strong habits — not just for pickleball, but for life. Focus, consistency, and small daily improvements are what drive real results.

And when you're ready to upgrade your gear, Serve’s paddles and balls are built for performance, tested on real courts, and designed to support every level of play.
