New York, United States - November 7, 2023 /PressCable/ —

The latest release is part of a series of articles on the Experience Pickleball site covering different aspects of pickleball, which is one of the fastest-growing sports in the US. The most recent APP Pickleball Participation Report shows that over 36 million people have played the sport at least one time over the last year.

The surge in pickleball popularity has led to widespread interest in the sport, which, like tennis, can be played as both a singles or doubles competition. However, there are noticeable differences between the two options that players should be aware of, from how scoring is measured to player positioning.

Experience Pickleball's article provides a detailed overview of how scoring, serving, and overall approaches must adjust between the two styles of play. As the guide explains, doubles matches involve tracking three numbers for the score, reflecting which side has the serve, while singles matches only use two numbers.

Serving also diverges between singles and doubles. The guide explained that in singles, the starting server must always begin from the right side. However, they then switch sides after winning a point - only remaining on that side if the point is lost. The article breaks down optimal serving strategies and angles for both formats.

It also delves into positioning, shot selection, and other tactical choices. Key tips include moving all the way to the non-volley zone line as often as possible for optimal court coverage. Furthermore, the article emphasizes the importance of making opponents move laterally and hit from weak positions.

The guide was written by Damien Dansel, who turned to pickleball six years ago. It draws from his extensive experience in both singles and doubles matchplay and also incorporates a video demonstrating key techniques that beginners can use to get started quickly.

Damien states: "The key to winning singles pickleball is finding the open court as unlike doubles pickleball, it's much more difficult for an individual player to cover the entire court. Find those wide angles as much as you can."
