Game within a game: How chess strategy mirrors pickleball strategy:

• The ability to anticipate your opponent (and your partner’s ) future moves.
• Developing a winning strategy based on your strengths vs. your opponent’s weaknesses
• The judgment on when to move forward or retreat on a certain move (or shot).
• The ability to “reset” when at a disadvantage.
• Positioning chess (or court) positions to maximize advantage
