      <title>Blaine - Ladies Drills 1 Tuesdays (June 16, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;br&gt;
If you have been playing awhile and are looking to improve your pickleball game, this ladies drill session will help create the muscle memory a player needs to execute good shots. &amp;nbsp;We will spend time drilling a skill and then practicing it in a game situation.&lt;br&gt;
This session is designed for players with some experience. &amp;nbsp;Drilling is cooperative and players need to have a good handle on basic skills to be able to feed the balls to other participants for a good experience for everyone.&lt;br&gt;
This class is not for beginners.&lt;br&gt;</description>
