Pickleball changed my life – now I help others fall in love with the game.
I’m Janey — a competitive pickleball player, tournament medalist, traveler, and proud community-builder. Whether you’re picking up a paddle for the first time or ready to take your game up a notch, my coaching is about so much more than drills and technique. It’s about building confidence, making connections, and having way more fun out on the court.
After winning a few medals in local tournaments, I realized something pretty quickly; The best part of pickleball isn’t just the wins… it’s the people you meet along the way.
Why I coach
I coach because I love helping players to:
- Learn the game in a way that actually makes sense
- Feel confident stepping onto any court
- Find their place in this amazing, welcoming pickleball community
My husband Eric and I also love to travel, and no matter where we go, we always end up finding a pickleball court. The game has this special way of bringing people together — across cities, countries, and skill levels — and that’s what inspires me most.
