HVP Pickleball Monday Sessions

I've been teaching lessons and writing about pickleball for about a decade. My main set of notes and diagrams is here and I also maintain a couple of apps related to pickleball. This one (PickleBrackets) generates mixed partner round robin brackets and this one (PBL App) is for running pickleball leagues. I've also published an academic paper about whether you should serve first in doubles with Stewart Ethier.
