WHAT IS 2.0-2.75 PICKLEBALL - DAISY DOUBLES?
This welcoming, five-star rated round-robin session is designed for individual players in the 2.0–2.75 skill range who enjoy friendly, skill-building games. You’ll rotate through multiple “timed” doubles matches with different partners.
As part of the Joy Crazy® mission to “Connect you to joyful experiences,” this session will help you build confidence on the court—no matter how long you’ve been playing.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Daisy Doubles Essentials is perfect for players who:
- Know the rules of pickleball and how to keep score
- Understand basic court positioning and doubles etiquette
- Can sustain a rally and are working on consistency
- Are developing their serves, returns, dinks, and backhands
- Are curious and willing to ask questions
- Enjoy a positive, encouraging environment with others at a similar level
Whether you're new to the sport or happily playing at this level long-term, you’ll find opportunities to sharpen your skills—without pressure to “move up.”
