Newer Players Rarely Think About This 🤔

Most players think improving at pickleball is all about hitting better shots.

But the real secret? Pattern recognition.

Pickleball isn’t random. The same things happen over and over. And once you start to recognize those patterns, your game changes forever.

✅ Where does your opponent like to hit their return?
✅ Do they struggle under pressure?
✅ What subtle tendencies give away their next shot?

If you aren’t paying attention to these things, you’re playing on autopilot—and that’s why you’re stuck at 3.5 or 3.0.

Watch the video above to learn more about pattern recognition and how you can start to really break through in your own pickleball.

Then–

Consider joining the 3.5 to 4.0 30-Day Challenge we’re preparing to start inside ThatPickleballSchool.

During the challenge, we’ll teach you how to read the game like a 4.0 player, anticipate shots before they happen, and finally take control of your matches.

You’ll become more consistent and the smartest player on the court.

You’ll be THAT player others want to play with all the time.

If the challenge sounds like it’s for you, you can register for it here:

NOTE: You must be a ThatPickleballSchool member by Friday, March 28th at 1PM ET if you’d like to participate in the challenge!

Are you unsure if the challenge is right for you?

I hope to see you either at the challenge or in the webinar!

P.S. A few members of TPS have asked “I’m just above a 4.0 (or just below a 3.5), is it still beneficial for me to join the Challenge?”

Absolutely. We’re building this in a way that will DEFINITELY make YOU a better player not only for 30 days, but for the rest of your pickleball life.
