Boost Your Game with Dink Placement

Pickleball is as much about strategy as it is about skill. Effective dink placement can force opponents into errors and secure your victories. Let’s refine this subtle, yet powerful, tool in your arsenal.

Drill Focus: Precision and Control

Set up six targets within the kitchen on your opponent's half of the court. Practice dinking towards these targets, aiming for consistency and precision. Switch up the pace and spin each time to keep opponent guesses.

Consistency Counts

Commit to 15-minute practice sessions daily, focusing solely on placing dinks at sharp angles. Observe how your consistency improves and match outcomes are positively affected.

Mindful Observation

Pay attention to opponent's positioning; adjust your dink's direction strategically to exploit gaps and force tough returns.
