Date: Monday Nov 18th
Duration: 90 minutes

In this lesson, we focus on the 3rd shot drop, a fundamental skill in pickleball that can transform your game. The 3rd shot drop is a soft, controlled shot played from the baseline that lands in the opponent's kitchen (non-volley zone). It slows down the pace and helps you and your partner transition to the net, where you can control the rally. Learning to execute a consistent 3rd shot drop allows you to neutralize aggressive players and build strategic positioning. This skill is essential for players looking to take control of the point and gain an advantage in competitive play.
