What is Liveball?

Live Ball is a fun, fast-paced doubles format game with no serves or returns with instructor feeding balls. The goal of the game is to make it to the champion side of the court and defend challenges from attackers. This format is great for players of all levels because it helps accelerate the learning process.. It is a win/win situation for all levels. This unparalleled action packed pickleball workout will have you running, sweating, and smiling within minutes. 

What is Advanced?

Advanced Level: 4.0. At this level, a 4.0 player uses advanced strategies and adapts to the opponent’s strategy by anticipating the opponent’s shots and consistently varying shots to create a competitive advantage. 4.0s consistently hit with moderate depth and control, use the dink and drop shot successfully, and can volley different shots at different speeds. These players also often hit successful 3rd shot drops from the baseline.
