## What is Coach Dink?

Film one game. Find out exactly what is costing you points.

Coach Dink watches your pickleball games the way a coach standing at the fence would: which shots you pick, how ready you are between shots, and the habits that keep handing the other side free points. You get a game report with the moments that mattered, what you did, and what to do instead. Singles or doubles, rec play or league night.

HOW IT WORKS
- Prop your phone in a corner of the court, about five feet up, with all four corners in frame. A small tripod helps, but a fence or a water bottle works too
- Play your game. Up to 20 minutes per video
- Tell Coach Dink which player is you, or coach you and your partner as a team
- In a couple of minutes, your report is ready. You get a notification when it lands

YOUR GAME REPORT
- An overall score for the game
- Coaching cues on the habits that cost you points, each with a still frame from your game so you can see what the coach saw
- Shot selection, ready position and split step, patience at the kitchen, and serve and return depth
- Serve depth, shown only when there were enough serves on camera to be worth reading
- Every fault links straight to the drill that fixes it

50 DRILLS, BUILT TO FIX WHAT SHOWED UP
Dinks, drops, drives, resets, serves, returns, and strategy. Every drill has an animated court diagram, the setup, the reps, and the cue to focus on. Filter by skill level, by what you have (a partner, a wall, a ball machine), or by shot. Finishing drills fills in each section of the library, in whatever order your games call for.

MATCH IQ
Twelve short lessons on the decisions that win rec games: when to speed it up, the third-shot decision, surviving no-man's land, stacking, lob defense, and more.

YOUR RATING
A short quiz about your game gives you a starting skill rating, and your game reports move it as you improve. Track your rating and the habits that keep showing up in your games, week over week. Drills never move your rating; only your games do.

STRAIGHT TALK
Coach Dink is a coach, not a stat sheet. It reads the video to coach your decisions and habits. It does not count every shot, and it will tell you when a clip did not show enough to judge something. The rating is Coach Dink's own estimate for tracking your progress. It is not an official rating from any pickleball organization.

SUBSCRIPTION
Coach Dink requires a Coach Dink Pro subscription, which unlocks game reports, the full drill library, Match IQ lessons, your rating, and your training plan. It is available as a weekly or yearly auto-renewable subscription, and the yearly plan starts with a free trial. Current pricing is shown in the app before you subscribe. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions.
