How to counterattack like a pro by Pickleball Playbook

Today’s video focuses on strategies to defend against and counterattack speed-ups.

It shares five main tips to help players.

The first big tip is about "Respecting the X."

This means knowing where to stand and how to move with your partner to cover the court well.

If you think a speed-up is coming, take a step back.

This gives you more time to see the shot and counterattack.

Also, you shouldn't jump; staying still helps you hit the ball better.

Your ready position is also important.

A good ready position will help you defend and counterattack more easily.

Lastly, watch how the ball moves.

Getting low and ready based on where the ball is going can really help you react faster.

Key Points

• Understand "Respecting the X" to cover the court with your partner.

• Step back to get more time to react to speed-ups.

• Don't jump; stay steady for better control.

• A good ready position will help you respond quickly.
