In Pickleball competition, different court types have a significant impact on the game strategy. Knowing how to adjust your tactics to the venue can help you better cope with various challenges.
1. Indoor venue
In indoor games, because the floor is usually smooth wood or synthetic materials, the ball bounce is more stable. You can take a more controlled approach, using accurate shots and short shots to disrupt your opponent’s rhythm. At the same time, the indoor court is not affected by the wind, so it is safe to use the higher arc of the lob ball to control the game.
2. Outdoor venues
When playing in outdoor venues, wind speed and surface type (such as cement or asphalt) have a greater impact on the game. In the face of changes in the wind, it is recommended to adopt a low flight trajectory hitting strategy to reduce the chance of the ball being disturbed by the wind in the air. In addition, the hard surface will make the ball bounce faster, so quick reaction and hitting the power ball is the key to winning.
By choosing the appropriate strategy for different venues, you can effectively improve your performance and help you have an advantage in the game.
