About the Course

A note from the creator of Pickleball Shots and Strategies

I’ve been coaching players in tennis for decades and pickleball for years, and over the years I’ve gained a lot of knowledge. I’ve developed proven, trusted, and best of all easy to follow methods and strategies to help players improve their game quickly. I believe that ANYBODY can learn to play, and enjoy the sport over a lifetime.

Pickleball is my passion and I wanted to reach people all over the world so I created an online course that includes all the things you’d learn during in-person lessons, and then some!

An athlete in any sport needs to learn proper techniques and mechanics to be successful. Even recreational players need to develop the techniques that will allow them to progress and build an all-court game. This unique course emphasizes easy to learn mechanics, so that you can use what you’ve learned in your games and also learn to hit the different shots effectively. 

Equally important are pickleball strategies. There are offensive strategies as well as defensive ones, plus strategies that encourage you to play a style that will extend the point and keep the ball in play. Learning these will improve your social game when playing others at all skill levels - weaker players and stronger ones.

Whether you are an advanced player looking to tune up your gameplay or you have never played a single game in your life, this course will work for you.

See you soon on the courts!

Testimonials

Hear what players have to say about Pickleball Shots and Strategies by Gregg Whitfield


I had been taught that the proper way to play Pickleball was to always get up to my kitchen line as soon as possible. I was very pleased to learn that at my 3.5 level, I could play very effectively by staying back and hitting drives and lobs and my friends now have a much more difficult time in winning a point. Keeping the ball in play and only moving forward on an effective low shot by me or my partner was great advice. My eyes were opened to how many players move forward on high balls and lose most of those points.

- Deanna

Gregg Whitfield has taught me how to hit the different shots with one of the two techniques and this has made a significant difference in my game. I now can hit the ball much more accurately.

-Steve

I am a retired physical education teacher and have coached high-level club teams and school teams. I know how to teach fundamental skills and Gregg‘s video on pickleball is outstanding. If I were ever to recommend a video series this would be it. It’s simply remarkable and covers all skill levels with techniques and strategies to play better pickleball no matter what your playing level is. I highly encourage you to study “Pickleball Shots and Strategies”. You will learn How to hit all the different Shots in the game and how to play the different Strategies so you can form a more effective defense as well as a more winning offense.

-Jeff

Gregg noticed me moving around my backhand to hit a forehand and avoiding my backhand. He gave me the easy fundamentals of a backhand that I can now use. I was amazed at how simple his progressions were to learn and develop a consistent backhand.

-Christy

I loved the progressions that I learned from Gregg on how to hit different shots and then develop each shot with the drills that he showed me. I understood the concept from my golf game and the driving range. I just hadn’t applied that to my Pickleball game. Now that I know the mechanics of how to hit the ball and drills to best develop each shot, now my only problem is finding players that want to spend some time drilling. That is manageable and my progress is moving along nicely.

-Chris

Gregg Whitfield’s teaching style has impacted my husband and I the most of any other instruction. We have incorporated the techniques in our clinics and the students are loving it.

-Lisa

Gregg has taken me from a 3+ player to 4+ in just six months of watching this course and with personal instruction. By just following his instruction and video concepts, I now understand and able to execute the game and am able to play with the best players around.
