Pickleball Players - Step On Court

Clear,
Confident,
Playing How You've Always Wanted

You’re not the problem. The advice you've gotten is.

You don’t need more tips or to develop flashy shots. You need to understand what matters most to your game.

When you get clarity and see the big picture, decisions are easier, mistakes are less frequent, and the game is more fun.

The Pickleball System gives you the structure you need to stop guessing, start feeling in control, and play with a calm confidence you feel and others notice.

Before talking about the System, let's talk about you...

You love pickleball. But some days you walk off the court frustrated, wondering why all your effort isn’t paying off.

You’ve tried what everyone says: watching YouTube videos, listening to advice at the courts, maybe even taking lessons. Yet when it comes time to play, it doesn't work the way you want it to.

One day, you play great. And the next it unravels.

And while pickleball is still fun, maybe it's not as enjoyable or as exciting as you’d like it to be.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And here’s the good news: the problem isn’t you.

You've just been told to focus on the wrong things.

What you need isn’t more tips—it’s clarity. And once you have it, confidence and consistency finally show up and the game feels fun in a whole new way.

The Pickleball System is the most proven and trusted coaching framework in pickleball. It's built to help you stop second-guessing, make steady progress, and walk off the court smiling and proud of your play.

Why This Works When Other Advice Doesn’t

Coaching with Clarity
Not random tips. Just a clear curriculum, expert coaching, and community support that guide you step by step.

Skills That Stick
Learn the shots and strategies that actually matter, so what you know shows up in real games.

Progress Others See, You Can Feel
Fewer mistakes, steadier play, and the reliability that earns you better partners and better games.

"The Pickleball System has been so instrumental in my journey. From my first pickleball tournament four years ago to today. I use it all the time and will continue to use it as I want to continue to advance. There is no more comprehensive system than what Better Pickleball provides."

Make the Ball Go Where You Want

Consistent, Reliable Shots

You’ve probably tried to “fix” your strokes with random tips. We’ll show you a few simple mechanics that cover most shots and finally make them repeatable.

Cut Down on Errors

Stop giving away points. Discover how concepts like energy and trajectory that influence every shot so you can adjust in real time and keep the ball in play under pressure.

Enhanced Movement

Move with confidence and stability. Improve your footwork and positioning so you’re always in the right place, ready for the next shot.

The System teaches how a minimum of skills can cover 80% of the game. For example, a certain dink embodies the stroke mechanics of every shot. I now know how the game is built, the essential elements that have the greatest impact. This would have progressed my game much earlier.

Andrea S.

Strategic Pillar

Decisions Made Simple

Smarter Shot Choices

You’ve been told to chase spins, drops, and power but those myths don’t win rallies. We’ll show you which shots actually matter, and when to use them.

Confident Game Plans

Instead of juggling random advice, you’ll follow a clear strategy that fits your level. No more guessing, just steady, reliable play you and your partner can trust.

See the Court Clearly

Once you know what matters, the game slows down. You’ll spot patterns sooner, react calmly, and enjoy longer rallies instead of chaotic points.

I noticed I was no longer winning as I moved into the 3.5-4.0 level. In fact, I was going backward! I went back to the System, the framework, and the strategy of the game. I reluctantly gave up the slam-bang game, and all of a sudden, I started winning again. There is a lot more to this game than 1st meets the eye, and the System really breaks it down into detailed and useable modules that, when implemented, really make a difference.

More Energy, More Fun

Pickleball should fuel you—finish games stronger and happier.

My friend is completely over the top with the System. She is amazed at how the course is helping her game, and I am so happy to hear her confidence level soar! It's her invisible friend when she gets the 'attitude' of the higher-skilled players!

Confidence Everyone Can See

Targeted support helps confidence grow, cuts mistakes, and makes the game more fun.

"I had been playing Pickleball for about two years when I noticed that my skill set had plateaued. I watched YouTube videos, practiced some of the suggestions, and then would go on to another video with little or no improvement.

Then I found CJ and Tony. I was amazed at the curriculum and the structure. Now I have a plan for growth and stability going forward. I can measure my progress, and I'm excited to see where I can take my game. I have absolutely seen an improvement in my play, my mental composure, and I'm having more fun.

The flexibility of the System allows anyone who wants to improve to create their own plan with guidance from CJ and Tony."

We're confident that THE Pickleball System will revolutionize your game, but we also believe in giving you peace of mind. That's why we offer a 90-day money-back guarantee.

"People say you can't learn online, you absolutely can. They have a lot of modules, but along with the modules, there's live learning. So we're watching people play matches, and then they're giving feedback as to what worked, what didn't. So you really can execute. Then you go out, drill, and practice what you've visually seen. You don't need somebody standing in front of you, and you get to do it on your time, which is perfect."

"When I go out to the courts, I feel like the game really slows down for me in a way that I don't perceive is the case with the other players on the court. I'm able to keep my brain calm and really execute on the simple concepts that are taught, giving me a good advantage over my competition."

"Yesterday we participated in a kind of shootout, 8 players on 2 courts. Half the players consider themselves advanced. After playing with them, they said they would welcome Joe and me to play with them!

You will love that they said that one reason we would be welcomed is that we understand the game.

We had a blast, and I felt challenged—especially mentally. Also, longer rallies challenged me physically. Mechanically, I knew I would have to be more thoughtful and accurate—they wouldn’t let me get away with junk 😉

Thanks again for all you have done for my game! And it’s not just the game—it’s my attitude about the game, myself, etc. I really appreciate the whole package that you and Tony offer."

Frequently Asked Questions

I already watch your YouTube channels and all the free content available. Isn’t that everything I need to know?

The Pickleball System is your gateway to a transformative learning experience that goes beyond the surface-level tips and tricks found on YouTube. While free content can be insightful, it often lacks the depth and continuity needed for true mastery. Our system is like a full-length book, offering a comprehensive, structured framework that guides you step-by-step on your unique pickleball journey. This holistic approach covers all aspects of the game, from technique and strategy to mental performance and physical fitness, ensuring you achieve a deeper, more complete understanding of pickleball.

I've never taken an online class. What can I expect?

How will the content and information be delivered?

The content is delivered through a mix of video lessons, live coaching calls, downloadable study guides, and interactive community discussions on our private community group. It's entirely self-paced so that you can learn at your own speed.

Modules will be released on a predetermined schedule designed to facilitate your journey and help you get the information you need IN ORDER to improve your play.

Members will have access to the modules for one year from their initial class. After their first year, they will be able to join future classes at a substantially discounted rate.

My court access is limited. Will I still be able to improve?

Absolutely! The Pickleball System is designed to ensure that you can make significant progress, even if your court time is limited. Our program offers a comprehensive approach that allows you to work on various aspects of your game off the court:

Mechanical Pillar: You can refine your technique through a series of drills included in our modules, which are specifically designed to be practiced away from the court and without a partner. This means you can continuously improve your skills and be ready to perform at your best when you do have court access.
Strategic Pillar: Develop your strategic skills by reviewing games online and observing other players at your local courts. This off-court analysis, combined with on-court practice, allows you to apply what you've learned and adapt your strategies effectively.
Athletic Pillar: Enhance your physical capabilities and mind/body connection with exercises and techniques that can be done off the court. By focusing on agility, strength, and mental focus, you'll experience a transformation in your overall athleticism, which will translate into better performance on the court.

While some court time is beneficial, The Pickleball System provides a multitude of ways to improve your game away from the courts, ensuring that every moment you spend on the court is more productive and impactful.

By joining The Pickleball System, you're investing in an experience that empowers you to take ownership of your pickleball journey and achieve the results you've been striving for!

I’m relatively new to pickleball. Is this right for me?

How long will it take to complete the course?

Let's reframe that.

It's not about completing the class. It's about getting the correct information to improve your game the fastest.

Most players could comfortably work with the system materials for years. Alumni students have told us that when they go back through the materials it resonates differently because they are now different players.

We have 4.5 level players who continue to use the System modules to improve their play.

What's most important is that you take the information from the System and apply it to your game. That's how you will see results.

What is the Private Community?

What if I join and I realize it’s not a fit?

I'm not very tech-savvy. Will I be able to navigate the course?

How long will I have access to THE Pickleball System?

What if I can't attend one of the Live Coaching Calls?

I live outside the US and Canada can I still take the course?

I live outside the US and Canada. How do I pay for the class and what about exchange rates?

"I've been exposed to many poor forms of teaching online through professional development, and I understand people's hesitation—can I learn online? From my perspective, I have been floored by the quality of the instruction that Tony and CJ provide through the Pickleball System. It is a self-paced program, so it goes at whatever pace I’m at. I can stop and work on some spots over and over again."

"I think what went through my head was I'm an athletic person, but there's a limit to my athletic capacities and my abilities to improve my pickleball.

I wanted to continue to improve my pickleball skills and techniques, but I also wanted to improve other aspects of the game. My physical ability to move on the court, my skills at reading the court, my strategy abilities, as well as the mind frame of what was going through my head and between my ears.

The System addresses all of those different areas. I was able to pick and choose my focus depending on what was going on in my life at the moment or what I just wanted to concentrate or what I felt the highest need was. "
