Start with a polymer-face paddle, a dozen outdoor balls, court-specific non-marking shoes and moisture-wicking athletic wear. After ten hours of play, add overgrips, a paddle cover and a dedicated duffel bag to protect your kit.
Focus on soft hands and minimal backswing at a low contact point. Stand close to the kitchen line, bend your knees, and tap the ball over the net. Drill against a wall for 100 consecutive dinks then practice cross-court rallies with a partner.
Measure from palm crease to ring-finger tip plus ½″ for grip size. Light paddles (<7.5 oz) offer control, midweights (7.6–8.4 oz) balance power and finesse, and heavy paddles (>8.5 oz) add pop but need stronger wrists.
Begin with 50 wall volleys without letting the ball drop. Move to serve-return sets—serve 20 balls and practice deep returns. Finish with cross-court dink rallies to hone placement, footwork and consistency.
