Drill 06 - Pickleball Serves



Serving isn’t just about starting the point—it’s your first chance to set the tone and reinforce your third shot drop.

In this drill, I’ll walk you through the four serves I rely on most—and explain when and why I use each.

Here’s what we’re working on:

  1. Find Your Rhythm – Serving consistently under pressure comes from repetition. Missed serves = free points, and no one wants that.

  2. Add Variation – Mix it up to keep opponents guessing and avoid falling into predictable patterns.

This is also a great warm-up to activate your shoulder and prep for all-court play.
