Middle 4th Shot - Who Hits it? A Simple Solution (50+ Pickleball Doubles Strategy)

0:00 Introduction Who takes the ball down the middle on the 4th shot in doubles pickleball? If you've ever hesitated, collided paddles with your partner, or watched a middle ball drop between you for a loss, this video gives you a clear rule you can use every time. Coach Tony Roig walks through the exact positioning and shows why the player already up at the non-volley zone line should cover the middle 4th shot, not the returner moving forward from the baseline. This middle coverage rule is especially valuable for 50+ pickleball players who need a beat more time to reach the NVZ line after the return of serve. Stay well out there.
