PICKLEBALL RALLY RIGHT AWAY Do you have family and friends staying with you, and you can’t wait to introduce them to pickleball? The Profession Pickleball Registry has just created “Rally Right Away.” The progression shows seven steps to help new players to learn the great game. 1. Self-Rally – The player will start bumping the ball in the air with their paddle. Then let the ball bounce on the court and tap straight up. 2. Rally with Partner – Place a target on the ground and have two players alternate tapping the ball to the target. 3. Target to Target Dink Rally – Players stand several feet apart, with the target between them. Players try to dink to each other’s target. 4. Dink Rally over the Net – Now move to the court and have the players rally from the NVZ line. 5. Dink Rally with a Volley – Have the players dink the ball back and forth, trying to hit each other’s target, but players are now allowed to volley the ball to prevent the partner from hitting their target. 6. Rally from the Baseline – Now move back to the baseline and rally full court. 7. Rally and Play from the Baseline – now introduce the serve and return and begin to play. Don’t worry too much about scoring and learning all the rules at this point.
