Intermediate & Advanced Levels
Sign up for $15/per person. This is a singles game but with a little twist. You do not have to play the whole court. Skinny singles is a great drill/game to help with placing your shots and less moving on the court.
Here is a quick rundown of how to play skinny singles Pickleball…
Like singles, only 2 people play at a time. Play is on only half the court.
This can be cross court – serving and returning diagonally across the court.
Or can be down the line – serving and returning on only one half of the court.
Although the traditional skinny singles is played as cross-court service and return, the down-the-line shot is done in a way in which the players are positioned on either side of the court based on their score.
Take for example. If the score is at 2-2, both the server and the opponent will be placed on their even sides and the cross-court serving is done from there. However, if the score stands at 3-2, the server (winning player) is placed on the odd side while the opponent is placed on the even side and the game is played as a cross-court game.
Remember that in Pickleball, the serving player changes sides for each service. The receiving player stays on the same side. This creates the same side service and return.
