America’s Biggest Pickleball Bootcamp CompanyI discovered pickleball in 2023, and it quickly became more than a hobby. It became a passion I pursued every single day.
By the start of 2024, I was fully immersed: playing daily, studying the PPA Tour, breaking down pro matches, and absorbing as much coaching knowledge as I could. For the last two years, I've averaged around 30 hours of play a week.
That dedication accelerated my growth and inspired me to give back to the community where I was born and raised… especially to players in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond.
When you're new to pickleball, there's more to learn than just how to hit the ball…
You want to know where to stand, when to move, how to serve, what grip to use, and what you're actually supposed to do once the point starts.
You want to stop second-guessing yourself and start feeling like you belong out there.
My coaching style blends clear communication with steady, positive energy, creating an environment where players feel supported and motivated.
Whether someone is picking up a paddle for the first time or pushing toward high-level competitive goals, my approach adapts to their experience, learning style, and ambitions. So every player gets the understanding, direction, and confidence to level up with purpose every time they hit the court.
We'll make sense of the rules, get your serve and grip working, show you where to stand and when to move, and work on the things that will make you feel more confident every time you step onto the court.
But honestly, that's only the beginning.
Because pickleball can become so much more than a game.
It can be the reason you get out of the house on a Sunday afternoon. The place where you meet new friends, laugh between points, find a regular group to play with, and suddenly have a whole new part of your social life.
I've seen it happen again and again. That's what I want for you.
What this gets you: You stop feeling like the new person. Names, court and paddle all sorted before you hit a ball.
What we cover:
What this gets you: Your shots stop sailing long or dumping into the net because your hand was in the wrong place.
What we cover:
On court:
You've played a little. You know the basics. But once the game starts, you're still not always sure where to stand, when to move, or what to do with the ball coming at you.
Why figure it all out the hard way when you can build the right foundation in just four focused hours?
We'll sharpen your serve, shots, positioning, movement, and decision-making… while you play and get coached in real time.
By the end, you'll stop wondering what you're supposed to do and start playing with confidence.
And that's when pickleball gets really fun: more games, new friends, better rallies, and a reason to look forward to getting back on the court.
Most camps charge hefty prices and send you home with nothing but memories. We're giving you a complete transformation system for life:
Written by Obsessed Pickleballers' head coach, Mark Ianni, it captures everything we teach on the court and goes even deeper, so you always know what to work on next.
With over 500 five-star reviews from players just like you, the book has helped a lot of beginners keep progressing to the next level.
Imagine having hundreds of players and coaches across the country in your corner, with weekly coaching, answers whenever you need them, and videos to keep improving with your new pickleball friends.
Your camp friends join the weekly sessions too, so you're learning together even after October 25.
Your 4-hour camp is just the beginning. Keep learning, keep playing, and wherever you travel, you'll have people to play with. Your camp crew just became a nationwide pickleball family.
This camp is designed specifically for beginner players at the 2.0-2.5 level. Every drill, every explanation, and every piece of coaching is calibrated for players who are new to the game or still building their core fundamentals.
With a maximum of 8 players, you'll receive plenty of personalized feedback throughout the camp. I watch every player closely and make real-time corrections that create visible, immediate improvement within the session itself.
Most people come alone, and that is one of the best parts. Everyone walks in as a stranger and a beginner, which takes all the pressure out of the room. By the wrap-up, you'll be swapping numbers, and by the following week, a lot of my campers are playing together.
You don't need a DUPR rating. The 2.0-2.5 range is simply to help you understand who this camp is designed for. If you're new to pickleball or still building your fundamentals, you're in exactly the right place.
Just bring your paddle, court shoes, athletic wear, protective eyewear (optional), water, some snacks, and a towel.
Just let us know when you register, and I'll have a loaner paddle waiting for you. Plenty of people take their first swing with a borrowed paddle, and by the end of the camp you'll know a lot more about what to buy for yourself.

You can start learning before you even arrive. The SURPRISE bonus will be sent to you after the camp.
