Professional Pickleball Registry…What the Future Holds

As many of you have heard, I have taken a new position as Lead Educator and Head Clinician for the newly formed Professional Pickleball Registry. It is a great privilege to have been approached for this position.

The Professional Tennis Registry (PTR) is one of the most recognizable names in tennis around the world.  This organization brings many years of experience and considerable resources to the promotion of our sport.  I truly believe that with their support, we will see growth even greater than what we have seen before.

We are all pleased by the fact that the tennis community is slowly, but surely, getting on board with pickleball.  The parent PTR and the new Professional Pickleball Registry (PPR) are ideally positioned to bridge the gap between tennis and pickleball in a way that will benefit both sports.

Pickleball Education

So many of you teach pickleball to newbies.  Not for money, but for the love of the game.
As I have traveled over the last year or so, I have often been asked for such a program.  While I have been working on it for years, I am pleased that we will be making it available through the PPR very soon.
This is a big change for Linh, me, and our boys.  But being able to teach the teacher, through the Professional Pickleball Registry, means that I can reach so many more people than before.  Please feel free to contact me with your questions or suggestions.

Where Does Power Come From in Pickleball?

Hint: It’s Not Your Arms. Let’s clear this up right away—power doesn’t come from your hands or arms. Swinging harder doesn’t automatically mean you’re hitting faster, stronger, or better. In fact, that mindset often does more harm than good. In pickleball, we separate power and control by the body:Power comes

Disguising Your Shot: The Power of Direction Change

Last week, we talked about cutting off the corners to create a more offensive dink. Now, let’s take that concept a step further—redirecting the ball to control the point. Why Does This Matter? The more I move my opponent, rather than moving myself, the more control I have. The goal
