Discover the missing piece in your pickleball journey — the mental game.In Pickleball Therapy - The Book, Senior Pro player and Better Pickleball co-founder Tony Roig makes the case for the element of performance that underlies every point, every rally, and every breakthrough: your mind.We train our shots endlessly—serves, drops, drives—but rarely train the mindset that governs them. The best players know that frustration, doubt, and overthinking can do more damage than any opponent. Tony Roig shows how to break free from those mental traps and rediscover the joy that first drew you to the game.With insight and warmth, Tony guides you to:• Recognize the thought patterns that sabotage your play and your enjoyment• Reframe losses and setbacks as essential steps in your growth• Build tools for focus, resilience, and emotional balance• Redefine success on your own terms, not by the scoreboardThis is not another book of clichés about “getting in the zone.” It’s a practical, compassionate, and action-oriented manual for mastering the supercomputer that exists between your ears.Drawing on sports psychology, hundreds of coaching sessions, and his acclaimed Pickleball Therapy podcast, Tony translates timeless principles of mental strength into daily habits any player can use.Pickleball Therapy - The Book is more than a guide for better play. It’s a call to think deeper, feel lighter, and reconnect with the simple joy of the game.Praise for Pickleball Therapy“This is not a book about strokes and drills... it's about what's happening between your ears when you play.As players, we've all felt it — frustration after an unforced error, overthinking at 9-9, replaying the miss instead of preparing for the next ball. This book gives practical, usable tools to manage those moments and stay intentional instead of emotional.What I love most is the focus on enjoying the game while still competing at a high level. Winning is great — but clarity, resilience, and purpose on the court are even more powerful.If you coach, compete, or simply love pickleball and want to think better so you can play better, this one is absolutely worth the read.”— Teresa Tarn, Professional Pickleball Player“At the professional level, we all know how to hit the shots. What separates winners is the mental game. Pickleball Therapy gives every player the tools to build that mindset.”— Eric Gagnon, Professional Pickleball Player, former US Open & World Champion“Not your typical pickleball book—this one’s like The Inner Game of Tennis for our sport. It’ll help you grow not just as a player, but as a person.”— Alan Tramposch, Pickleball Player“This is a field guide to the spirit of pickleball—less about mechanics, more about meaning. The lessons apply on and off the court.”— Sharon Hamilton, Pickleball Enthusiast and Reviewer Read more
