“The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.”

Do You Know Hand Signals in Pickleball?

Ever wondered how players communicate before a point begins?

In this video, I share some of the most common hand signals and how using them can help you and your partner play better pickleball!

This week’s focus

I always find it interesting how little players communicate with each other on the court–particularly when they play with someone they don’t know.

You’d think THAT would be THE time to communicate the MOST.

Whether you use hand signals (maybe make sure the other player knows them before you try it :) or communicate verbally, make a point this week to OVERCOMMUNICATE with your partner.

Even if–scratch that–especially if they are strangers or you don’t play with them very often.

The results might just surprise you!

P.S. If you overcommunicate and your partner tells you it’s too distracting, respect their wishes–and NEVER play with that person again. 🙂 jk.

But, also, don’t. 

Instead, head to ThatPickleballSchool and meet some people who will appreciate you.
