Dominate with Effective Net Blocks

Net play is critical in pickleball, and mastering the block can give you a significant advantage. Here's a simple drill to improve your blocking skills:

1. Partner Up: Work with a partner who hits consistent shots at you.
2. Hold Your Ground: Focus on maintaining a stable, athletic stance.
3. Soft Hands: Absorb the ball’s impact with soft hands, minimizing your backswing.
4. Controlled Placement: Aim to place your blocks in a controlled manner, keeping the ball low and within court boundaries.

Practice this drill for 10-15 minutes, focusing on technique and consistency. Remember, the key to an effective block is soft hands and precise control!
