A comprehensive guide to the sport of Pickleball. I liked the narration too but felt compelled to only award four stars because of the pronunciation of some proper names, notably "Roanoke" and "Knute" (Rockne), both of which end with a silent "e." For anyone thinking of taking up Pickleball or a Pickleball player looking to improve their game and learn about the origins of the game, I recommend this book

I was curious to know more about pickleball, as it is becoming part of US culture. The book gives you a complete overall look at the basics, PLUS added info to make you a good player with a winning edge! It starts out explaining why pickleball is so popular, the origins and evolution of the game, and stories about famous pickleball players. Then it moves on to basic equipment, attire, the court, and safety and fitness concerns. It explains all the terminology which is a must for beginners and people who are curious to see if they might like the game. YOu learn about how to join groups or find courts in your area. It also explains techniques to improve your play, and practices or "drills" that will help you acquire the muscle memory for the basic skills, To bring everything one step further, the author discusses the best singles and doubles strategies to win. I was really impressed by the specifics that were explained ( which would probably take you years of playing to figure out on your own!). Finally, they give you the top 10 strategies to improve your game and become a formidable opponent! All the technical info is interlaced with personal stories of people for whom pickleball changed or improved their life. Whether you just want to know about this new craze, want to start playing, or want to improve your game, you can glean something valuable from this audiobook!
