All the basics are discussed, including basic strategies, terminology and outside the box advantages such as fitness and all of the benefits of regularly playing pickleball. After learning the terminology and basics, I feel ready to get out there on the court.

I appreciated the clear guidance on choosing equipment and mastering the basic moves—things I would’ve had no clue about otherwise.

By the end, I felt way more confident about jumping in and trying it out with friends. If you’re new to pickleball and want a solid, friendly intro, this audiobook is a total winner!

Advice on selecting the right equipment
One of the good parts for me was the advice on selecting the right equipment. Before this, I had no idea how much difference the right paddle or shoes could make, and now I feel much more confident about what to look for. The step-by-step techniques were also a huge plus—learning the basic strokes and strategies made me feel like I could actually hit the court without feeling completely lost.
