Top 4 Pickleball Doubles Strategies: How to Build Teamwork and Win Every Rally

In Pickleball doubles, there’s no room for disconnection. Either you and your partner move as one – or you hand victory to your opponents. Winners are those who move in sync.

1. Move as One – Never Lose the Rhythm

If you move alone, you leave half the court open. 

When your partner steps forward, you move up too. When they fall back, you retreat instantly. Keep 2–3 steps apart – enough to cover the court, yet close enough to close all gaps. Once you move as one unit, your opponents won’t find a weakness to exploit. You become a synchronized wall on the court.

2. Target Weaknesses – Win with Intelligence

Every team has a weak link. Instead of hitting freely, attack with intention: Aim at the player with less control; Hit into the space between two opponents to force confusion; When the chance comes, both move to the net and seize total control.

3. Smart Defense – Turn Pressure into Opportunity

Being pushed back happens to everyone. The key is to stay calm and use the pressure: Return high and deep to stretch your opponents; Use dink shots to break their rhythm and force weak returns; Trust your partner – don’t fight for the same ball.

You’ll slow down the game, frustrate your rivals, and create your moment to strike back.

4. Clear Communication – The Voice That Wins

Many teams lose not because they lack skill, but because they lack communication. Encourage each other. Talk during every rally. Clear calls remove hesitation – the biggest enemy in doubles. When communication flows, confidence follows – and victory feels natural.
