Essential Pickleball Skills for Kids: A Beginner's Guide by Jordan Briones Introduction Pickleball, a rapidly growing sport that blends elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong, is increasingly popular among all age groups. Recently, Jordan Briones, a seasoned Pickleball coach from Phoenix, Arizona, launched a KZbin series tailored specifically for youth players. In his video "A Beginner Pickleball Lesson - Essential Skills," Jordan, along with his 7-year-old son Josiah, provides a comprehensive guide for teaching kids under 10 the fundamental skills of Pickleball. This article summarizes the key topics and drills presented in their instructional video, offering valuable insights for parents, coaches, and young enthusiasts eager to learn the game. Key Skills and Drills 1. Continental Grip (0:40) The Continental grip, similar to holding a hammer, is recommended for beginners. This grip provides a versatile foundation for both forehand and backhand shots. 2. Paddle Bumps - Forehand (1:18) Forehand paddle bumps help develop hand-eye coordination and control. Kids should aim to keep the ball at a medium height with a relaxed grip. 3. How Tight is Your Grip (2:24) Maintaining a medium grip pressure is crucial. A grip that's too tight or too loose can affect control and accuracy. 4. Paddle Bumps - Backhand (2:36) Backhand paddle bumps are similar to forehand bumps but require kids to adjust their positioning and use the back of the paddle. 5. Paddle Bumps - Two Hands (2:54) Using both hands on the paddle can provide additional stability and control, especially for younger or less experienced players. 6. Toss Dinks (4:25) Toss dinks involve tossing the ball to the player, who then aims to hit it softly into the kitchen (non-volley zone). This drill emphasizes accuracy and touch. 7. Touch (7:02) Developing a soft touch is essential for controlling the ball's speed and placement. Practicing different levels of force helps kids understand how to manage their shots effectively. 8. Forehand 1-2-3 (9:14) This drill focuses on hitting three consecutive forehand shots with varying intensity to different targets, enhancing precision and adaptability. 9. 3-2-1 (10:43) Starting with a powerful shot and gradually reducing intensity, this drill helps players control their swing speed and ball trajectory. 10. Two Hand Backhand 1-2-3 (11:14) Using both hands, kids practice hitting three backhand shots, reinforcing stability and control. 11. Technique (12:51) Proper technique, including grip, posture, and swing mechanics, is crucial for developing consistent and effective strokes. 12. Switching Forehand/Backhand (13:44) Kids practice alternating between forehand and backhand shots, improving their ability to adapt quickly during a game. 13. Dink Rally (14:23) A dink rally involves hitting the ball back and forth softly, focusing on control and consistency within the kitchen area. 14. Recovery to the Middle (15:14) After each shot, players should return to the middle of the court to be ready for the next shot. This drill teaches proper positioning and movement. 15. Directional Control (16:33) Players practice hitting shots to specific targets, alternating directions to improve accuracy and strategic play. 16. Practice Games (17:02) Incorporating practice games helps kids apply the skills they've learned in a fun and competitive setting, reinforcing their learning. 17. Outro (20:03) Jordan wraps up the session by encouraging continuous practice and reminding viewers of the importance of fun and enjoyment in learning Pickleball. Summary Jordan Briones' instructional series for young Pickleball players offers a structured yet enjoyable approach to learning the sport. By breaking down essential skills into manageable drills, Jordan and his son Josiah provide a clear and engaging path for kids to develop their Pickleball abilities. From mastering the Continental grip to practicing directional control, each step builds on the previous one, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the game. Whether you're a parent looking to introduce your child to Pickleball or a coach seeking effective teaching strategies, this guide serves as a valuable resource for fostering young talent in the sport. With continuous practice and a focus on fun, young players can develop the skills needed to enjoy and excel in Pickleball.
