- Rushing the serve: Take a moment to collect yourself and relax before serving so you can place your serve more consistently and better.
- Taking your eye off the ball: Practice keeping your eye on the ball to avoid misses and distractions during play.
- Wearing improper shoes: invest in proper tennis/pickleball shoes to help you move better and prevent injury.
- Sloppy footwork: practice your footwork and avoid playing above your level too early.
- Panicking: Remember to have fun and enjoy the game instead of worrying about impressing others.
