There’s nothing like being in sync with your pickleball partner. It makes winning feel even sweeter, and losing… well, it becomes something you can actually learn from as a team.
Here are Dr. Auerbach’s 4 crucial tips for building trust and rapport with your pickleball partner:
Discuss each other’s playing styles. Highlight your strengths and weaknesses to create a game plan that leverages each other’s strengths.
Ask for critical feedback. Show your partner that you’re eager to improve and value their opinion. They’ll likely do the same in return.
Compete against your partner. This can reveal areas for improvement in each other’s game.
Always back each other up. Support and uplift each other whenever possible.
