Why We Started This

This is the first episode of a new conversation series between two competitive rec pickleball doubles partners. We already spend a lot of time talking about pickleball after games — the drills we’re working on, the matches we played, paddles we’ve tried, and things we’re still trying to improve. So we decided to hit record. This isn’t coaching, and it’s not paddle hype or highlight-only content. It’s just two players talking through what we’re learning and what we’re still figuring out in our own games. 0:00 Intro — Why we started Juice Bros Pickleball 0:17 How Dav and Adrian met — a random park and a first tournament gold 1:48 The journey from 3.5 to 4.0 — mental game, drills and two golds 3:28 Attempting 4.5 — what changes at the higher levels 5:14 What this podcast is — struggles, insights and the Canadian scene
