Official Pickleball Handbook by Mark Friedenberg

The Official Pickleball Handbook was written by the all-knowledgeable, pickleball legend Mark “Yoda” Friedenberg. Friedenberg is inarguably one of the most famous and educated players to have ever picked up a pickleball paddle. It’s not just a great coffee table book; this paperback product is truly the know-all, end-all pickleball reference. It’s brimming at the seams with fantastic information that is guaranteed to advance any player’s skills. This second edition was published in 2006 and is still up-to-date with valuable tips and tricks from the “Ancient Master”.

The Official Pickleball Handbook contains information that can aid the games of players of all skill levels, from beginner to expert. Inside the 11” high by 8.5” wide book you’ll find large pictures, informative diagrams and, of course, immense amounts of valuable text. This book covers content such as pickleball’s history, strategies, unwritten rules, practice drills, tournament tips, physical and mental conditioning, and so much more. There’s even a glossary to help define even the most obscure words.

The Official Pickleball Handbook is a must-have book for any pickleball instructor or player.

Friedenberg is a former engineer and his writing style is terse and precise--and invaluable. Don't buy it because I might play you some day, and I want the edge the book gives a reader!
