In fact, this can be good pickleball strategy. The goal on the pickleball court in competitive play is to apply as much pressure on your opponents as possible. To apply pressure, there are two general things to focus on: 1 whichever partner can hit the best shot and apply the most pressure on the pickleball at that time should take the shot; and 2 the shot should be hit at the opponent who is weaker at handling the pressure at that time.
While this is not always true, oftentimes particularly in competitive play , this means that 1 the partner on the pickleball court with the greater size, reach, and power will hit the pickleball stereotypically, this would be the male partner, but, again, this is not always the case ; and 2 the shot should be hit at the weaker opponent, who would have more trouble handling the consistent pressure stereotypically, this would be the female partner, but, again, this is not always the case.
As a result, there are some similar patterns that occur in high-level, competitive mixed doubles pickleball play for instance, the pro pickleball level —particularly when at the Kitchen line. These similar patterns are:. Both partners—both the male partner and the female partner—should look for an opportunity to put the pickleball away or create a winning scenario.
Although the crosscourt dink battle is the typical pattern, not every shot should be hit as a crosscourt dink. Speed-up shots, dinks or shots behind the aggressive player, lobs, etc. However, you need to pick your shots carefully, as the male player that you may be avoiding could use that as an opportunity to insert himself aggressively into the point. As a result, it is important to keep the pickleball low and unattackable.
Also, to note, if you are playing an advanced team, beware of an Erne if you hit the pickleball too close to the sideline behind the male player that you may be avoiding. It is not uncommon for the female players to take on a role that is to set-up their male partners for a winner.
