The following are resources that we’ve found to be especially helpful as you work toward your goals in developing your “game” of pickleball.
Guides and Cheat Sheets
We find the USA Pickleball Definition of Skill Ratings information, particularly their PDFs, to be helpful in thinking about your skills, opportunities, and overall rating.
Equipment
We have been affiliated with Selkirk since they founded in 2014, and the Barnes family well before that. We love their products, not only because of that longstanding relationship, but also because they are the best pickleball producers in the industry.
If you are in need of a new paddle, balls, training ball carrier, branded clothing, or a variety of other accessories, we encourage you to check out their website. If you have appreciated our services and decide to make a purchase we ask that use our advocate code, below, at checkout.
