5 paddle drills you can do at home! by Davis Pickleball

Ed from Davis Pickleball demonstrates five drills to improve your pickleball skills at home.

He starts with the Continental grip, which is great for switching between forehand and backhand.

The first drill is bouncing the ball on your paddle, focusing on hitting the sweet spot.

Then, he moves to alternating bounces between forehand and backhand, improving hand-eye coordination.

The next drill is about softening your hands to gently catch the ball on the paddle, teaching control for softer shots.

He introduces the paddle roll, rolling the ball from one side to the other, which enhances paddle handling.

Finally, Ed shows a Top Spin drill using a special tool, helping you learn the right motion for topspin shots.

Key Points:

1. Use the Continental grip for better control.

2. Practice bouncing the ball on the paddle's sweet spot.

3. Soften your hands for gentle ball catches, improving shot control.

4. Try the paddle roll for better paddle handling.

5. Use the Top Spin Pro tool to practice topspin on your shots.
