Take Care

I hope you are all doing well and somehow finding creative and safe ways to keep pickleball in your lives. This past week has been an absolute treat for me. I’ve managed to play singles pickleball about 5 times so far. With many recent safe playing experiences now soundly in my back pocket I would like to share a few tips that have allowed me to take extra care in safe playing. Now, I know a couple of weeks ago I wrote about the safety measures we would all have to follow in order to play pickleball again; and although some of the content is an overlap, these tips are coming from the perspective of having now played multiple games and really having the opportunity to feel out how to best play in a safe manner.

So far my experience in playing safe singles has been really enjoyable and I’m happy to continue as is for the next while. I have a few friends who are interested in following the safety recommendations to the same extent I have. Which leads me to my final recommendation: find players who will practice safe playing to the same degree as you. It makes it for a more efficient and enjoyable experience for all. Finally, I need to shout out to my playing companions who've played safe and enjoyable games with me - thanks for the awesome games! |
