From the history of the game to the basic rules (hint: you do not want to be caught in the "kitchen" during a volley), Simon offers a complete overview for casual and expert players alike. With easy-to-follow steps and expert advice, readers will learn everything they need to know, including information like: Where and how to set up a court ; Scoring, gameplay, and equipment ; Strategies to win at any skill level ; The difference between a dink, a drive, and a drop shot. In addition, Simon weaves in inspiring stories from the world's top players during their most exciting pickleball moments." --publisher's website.
