Get to know Coach Rachael
Hi, I’m Rachael!
As a touring pro previously ranked in the top 20 on the professional tour, I’ve spent years competing at the highest level—but my favorite thing is translating that experience into fun, actionable lessons for young players. I’ve served as the Pickleball Director at both Pickles and Play and Peak Sports in Apex, and now I’m entirely focused on growing my own youth programs.
I believe that learning real, high-level skills doesn’t have to be rigid or boring. My coaching philosophy centers on breaking down proper mechanics into simple, game-based cues that kids love to practice. Your child will get all the energetic fun of a great youth sports camp, combined with the technical foundation of pro-level training. I can’t wait to introduce them to the game and watch their confidence soar!
Refund, Credit, and Cancellation Policy
Please read carefully before registering. Because classes are strictly capped at 4 players, spots are highly limited.
No Refunds & Strict Credit Policy
No Credit Card Refunds: Under no circumstances do we issue refunds back to credit cards. All sales are final.
No Sickness or Family Emergency Exceptions: We cannot offer credits or refunds for missed classes due to illness, travel, or family emergencies.
Weather & Coach Illness Cancellations (The 8-Week Window)
If a class is canceled due to rain, inclement weather, or coach illness, the class will be pushed back and tacked onto the end of the 6 weeks. The makeup class will take place at the exact same day and time as the regular schedule.
While this is a 6-week program, please ensure you’re available for an 8-week window from the start date just in case we need to utilize makeup weeks due to weather.
Summary: If we cancel due to weather, we will extend the series and add the missed day to the end of the 6 weeks. If you miss a class for personal reasons (sickness, vacation, etc.), no refunds or credits will be provided.
