Hey there Belleville players! I am running a fall special for lessons of all kinds! 30% off individual and group lessons and hoping to get some more classes going before we leave on November 30 for the winter! Contact me to get on the schedule! We will do lessons at Bellevue park or somewhere else upon request. Give me a call today to discuss your improvement plan soon and ask about even lower pricing for lesson packages. Hope to see you out on the courts!

Belleville Pickleball classes got off to a great start this week! Thank you to all of our participants and to the awesome parks and rec department who moved quickly and even made us some cool shirts. Also a big congratulations and thank you to Dani Napoli who made her coaching debut with the Tuesday group! We can’t wait to see you all next week, and thanks for trusting us to help you on your pickleball journey!

Hey guys as I’m sure most of you are aware by now, Dani, Zoey and I have moved to Belleville and we’re finally starting to settle in after a ton of misfortune and headaches in this first month. Now that we have some semblance of a home in place, it is time for me to start rebuilding my business! I would love to continue coaching here in the Midwest! My specialty is in helping new players learn the fundamentals and helping intermediate players fill holes in their game.

If you, or anyone you know is interested in having their first pickleball lesson or class, please pass my info along to them, or reach out to me directly! I am currently located in Belleville but will definitely travel to arrange groups and private lessons. I teach all ages, from 7-107. If you know someone who is 108, they are eligible for our referee program 😆 hehe

Last week Fairfield Pickleball Club and USA Pickleball were proud to host these awesome young folks for a special beginner clinic! Our local cub scouts came out to learn our great sport and I think they’re hooked! Thank you to Selkirk for providing paddles through the Community Growth Program!! And thank you to fellow USAP Ambassadors George Kennedy and Dennis Chen for helping facilitate an awesome time! We also hosted our regular beginners clinic and between the two clinics we had 4-5 courts of instruction!! Thanks so much to all who participated and helped make it a great day! Join us again in March!

Unfortunately tonight’s first class sessions will be canceled due to rain. Reschedule date to come!

Starting Wednesday 2/7 at Allan Witt Park! Class is FINALLY in session!!! If you don’t plan to attend, please consider sharing to make sure anyone who has been wanting to start their journey can take the leap! Thanks guys for all your support to help me get to this point!
