Revisted this article on Tennis Channel about how Pickleball can improve certain aspects of ones tennis game, and even serve as a filter. Tennis is very technical and can be frustrating to learn, whereas Pickleball is generally easier, and fun to learn. I think that Pickleball can serve as a great intro to Racquet Sports, particularly for young people.

It was probably just a matter of time before tennis and pickleball clash..."The U.S. Tennis Association says that 10% of courts in America have been taken over or repainted since the pickleball boom began." Here in Toronto, I've seen a few public tennis courts painted with yellow pickleball lines, so it isn't a takeover or a repainting. Doubling a court for tennis and pickleball is a good use of limited resources, but more importantly it provides an opportunity for pickelball to grow and people to be more active. Now, we just need a professional event or a Major League Pickleball franchise in Canada to really accelerate the sport's growth here. #emergingsport #pickleball #sportbusiness

📢 Calling all tennis enthusiasts! 📢🎾 We've learnt about the sport, history, equipment, Skills/Techniques and today I will be concluding with the strategies that you should know about Tennis. 1️⃣ Mix up your shots: By varying the power and pace of your shots, you can keep your opponent on their toes and make it harder for them to anticipate your next move. 🎯 2️⃣ Aim for the corners: Hitting the ball to the corners of the court can force your opponent into difficult positions and limit their options for a strong return. 🎾💥 3️⃣ Master your footwork: Quick and efficient movement is crucial in tennis. By improving your footwork, you'll be able to reach more balls and maintain better court coverage. ⚡️ Remember, these strategies are just the tip of the iceberg. Tennis is a game of creativity and adaptability, so don't be afraid to experiment and find what works best for you. 🌟 Feel free to share your own favorite tennis strategies in the comments below!
