ICL: Pickleball - I Learned How to Play, Now What? September 26 – November 07

Course Instructor - Sharon Harkavy

You’ve learned how to play pickleball but would you like to have more help with specific shots?  Are you interested in learning strategy to improve your game?  Do you want to know the best spots to put the ball and when?  How’s that backhand coming along?  If you want to improve your game, and become a better player then this class is for you.  We will work on drills and playing so you can improve your overall game.  We will also learn some of the more in-depth rules that don’t come up very often.  This class is designed for 8 players so we can play games with 4 people on each court.  Please prepare to commit to attending all of the classes or perhaps just missing one.  As long as I know in advance that you will be absent, I can find someone to fill in for you.  Looking forward to teaching this wonderful game for eager learners.
