Aggressive Dinking Drill: One Player Places Dinks Between Middle and Corner; The Other Holds Only the Corner

Summary

Elite Pickleball Coaching shares a simple two-player drill for aggressive dinking.

One player places dinks between the middle and the corner, while the other focuses only on the corner. That pattern builds consistency, control, and the ability to take balls out of the air while maintaining pressure.

Key takeaways

  • One player places dinks between the middle and the corner
  • The other player focuses only on the corner
  • The drill builds consistency, control, and taking balls out of the air while you keep pressure on

Action items

  • Run this two-player pattern for several minutes: one mixes middle-to-corner, the other holds only the corner
  • Switch roles so both of you practice placing the mixed dinks and defending the corner
