Not just another book about how to play pickleball, Pickleball Mindset dives deep into how to think on the court.

Coauthored by Dayne Gingrich, top senior professional pickleball player and renowned mental performance coach, and Jill Martin, an attorney turned personal trainer and pickleball fanatic, this book follows their year-long coaching relationship in which Jill seeks to become mentally dominant on and off the court. In each chapter, Dayne explores the what, why, and how of mental performance strategies he has used in his athletic and coaching career. Jill then shares her real-time bumps, bruises, and celebrations as she works to incorporate each strategy into both her game and life.

In Pickleball Mindset, you'll learn mindset-expanding strategies, including how to:

  • Excel in the make-or-break moments
  • Build unbreakable self-belief
  • Find and become the best partner
  • Optimize your tournament preparation and performance

More than a lecture between coach and athlete, Pickleball Mindset is a conversation about how to grow and nourish a confident mindset through the turbulent journey we all encounter as athletes and humans.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This is a fantastic book about the mental game of PickleBall, but this applies to really any aspect of life.

I compare this to the inner game of tennis as it will improve your sports performance, but also your sports experience and really your life experience. Thank you for this fantastic book and I really enjoyed the Audible version.

As a competitive Overthinker, this book really put training and Pickleball play into perspective. The parts on finding a partner tournament play and pre-tournament play were especially helpful for me. The Pickleball mindset is just that it is where you need to be if you’re going to play the game competitively .

Just what my game and mind needed!

I purchased this audible book in hopes of overcoming anxiety while playing pickleball. I played for 7 years and was struck with the serving “Yips” . I don’t like giving poor reviews but while listening, I found my mind wandering off. Other readers may not have this issue. Narrations, setting up the background, giving historical moments, etc….. needs to be kept to minimal if the point is to be noticed . This is the best I can describe this audible. I listened to it twice and kept falling asleep through boredom, sorry. Maybe just me?

Okay,,, but not for me

Knowing little about the title in advance other than recommendation by an open play partner, I found the title a lot shorter and more simplistic than some of the greats in the genre like The Inner Game of Tennis. I was already familiar with the topic of ore-acceptance from Zen/stoicism type work. Good notes on the power of visualization. I think this title would be most applicable to those who identify with Jill’s story of getting over mental hurdles of perfectionism and perhaps neuroticism. Personally I would have liked to hear more about actual game strategies and matches but it’s discussed in the intro that the topic is purely on “mindset” rather than the game of Pickleball.

A good start to a larger topic
