Hey hey, this is Shaun with the Atlanta Tennis Podcast, powered by GoTennis.
Speaker:And today's tip comes from USPTA and PPR certified pickleball pro Jim Carella.
Speaker:And it's for all you pickleballers out there.
Speaker:Have a listen and let us know what you think.
Speaker:Hi Jim Carella here, aka Jimbo Pickleball.
Speaker:Today we're talking about the grip and the pickleball ready position.
Speaker:I'm often asked what grip should I use?
Speaker:Well, the continental grip probably is the best for pickleball.
Speaker:Gives you the best of both worlds.
Speaker:The other is what type of ready position?
Speaker:Extremely important.
Speaker:If you're a tennis player, ready position is important, but pickleball is imperative.
Speaker:Get that paddle out in front.
Speaker:Be ready. Speed ups come very fast.
Speaker:Remember you're only 14 feet apart from your opponent.
Speaker:So being prepared is key.
Speaker:Hope this helps.
Speaker:Happy Pickling.
