I am beyond excited to be rejoining Supernovas Pickleball team this upcoming season of the U.S. Legends Pickleball League. Thank you to team owner Dani Mackey for this wonderful opportunity. Let’s Geaux!!!!
The SuperNovas are proud to welcome Cindy Kuragami - a PPR instructor out of Stacks Pickleball in Baton Rouge, LA, back to the team this season. Cindy is a former Division 1 tennis player (Yale University) and former PGA golf instructor who took up pickleball in January 2024.
She's medaled in several tournaments and most recently took the bronze medal in women’s doubles at 2026 US Open (5.0 50-54 age group). She's the commissioner (and 3-time champ) of her fantasy football league and fosters dogs from her local municipal animal shelter.

Attack from a position of power. Reset from a position of weakness.
💥 Attack From a Position of Power.
🎯 Reset to the Middle From a Position of Weakness.
When you’re stretched or off balance, resist the temptation to force a difficult shot. Reset through the middle—even more than once if necessary—to buy time, regain your balance and get your team back on even footing. ⚖️
The best time to attack is when you’re balanced and in control. Until then, reset with purpose. 🔄
That’s how we turn knowledge into wins. 🏆

Lob with intention: Target the Left Shoulder
LOB WITH INTENTION: TARGET THE LEFT SHOULDER
A good lob doesn’t just go over your opponent—it targets a difficult response. Against a right-handed player, aim over the left shoulder to force an awkward high backhand and make recovery more challenging.
Don’t just lob it high. Lob it with purpose. 🎯
And that's how we turn KNOWLEDGE INTO WINS.
