I started playing Pickleball in Janaury 2023 and immediately attached to it. I absolutely loved it. Having played a lot of ping pong growing up as a kid, it was the perfect mix of strategy and skill. I also loved the social component. All of my friends were playing and it was a great way to hang out together. And then my family got involved. That made it even better. Probably the thing I love most about Pickleball is that is a generational game. Grandparents can play with their grandkids, parents can play with their kids, the whole family can get involved. It’s very accessible and allows people from all walks of life to enjoy an activity together.

It wasn’t long before my competitive side started itching and I knew I wanted to get better. In July of 2023 I started taking the game more seriously. I started drilling insatiably, focusing on basic parts of the game kill 3rd shot drops, dinks, kills, etc. and I started to see incredible increases in my skill level. I got to play with better and better players, people were inviting me to their games and I felt like they started to enjoy having me as their partner. It was definitely a shift from when I began and it felt amazing. It felt incredible to put the ball where I wanted to, to be strategic and make people pop up balls for me to smash to win the point, and to help my teammate out. It exponentially increased my enjoyment in the sport.

And that’s how Pickleball Lab came about! I wanted to keep having fun with Pickleball and bring both aspects of growing the game and getting better at the game into one place.

Welcome in and I hope you catch Pickleball fever!
