Marcus Lewis Pickleball Coaching Program

Fairbank Community Center • Community Center Gym

Progressive, high-quality instruction for adult players. Clinics are grouped by playing ability so you can train with others at a similar level in a supportive, fast-learning environment.

Use the Level Guide below to pick your best fit. If you feel between two levels, it’s usually better to choose the lower one first.

All clinics are for adults 17+. Schedule may adjust due to weather, elections, or building maintenance. Clean, dry indoor court sneakers are required; loaner paddles and balls are available.

Intro Pickleball Clinic (Beginner)

For brand-new players or those who have only hit a few times. We cover rules, scoring, court layout, safety, basic footwork, and core strokes (serve, return, forehand, backhand, simple volleys).

You might be here if:

  • You’ve never taken a formal pickleball lesson before.
  • You’re not yet comfortable keeping score or rotating on a doubles court.
  • You want a slow, fundamentals-first introduction.

Goal: Leave comfortable joining friendly open play and beginner socials.

2.5 Advanced-Beginner Pickleball Coaching

For players who know the basics and want more consistency. Focus on reliable serve/return, better contact, early positioning, basic dinking, and simple doubles communication.

You might be here if:

  • You understand rules and scoring but still miss easy shots.
  • You can keep a short rally going but struggle with control and placement.
  • You’re starting to play doubles and want to feel less “lost” on court.

Goal: Build solid, repeatable fundamentals and comfort in casual doubles.

3.0 Low-Intermediate Pickleball Coaching

For players who can rally and keep score but want stronger patterns and decision-making. Emphasis on third-shot drop vs. drive, transitioning to the kitchen, dinking patterns, and soft resets.

You might be here if:

  • You regularly play social doubles and can sustain medium-paced rallies.
  • You know what a “third shot drop” is but can’t execute it reliably.
  • You’re starting to think about strategy, not just “get the ball back.”

Goal: Run core pickleball patterns confidently and win more points at the kitchen.

3.5 Intermediate Pickleball Coaching

For experienced players with solid control looking to upgrade tactics and speed. Work on pace changes, resets under pressure, targeted third shots, defending and initiating speed-ups, and smarter positioning.

You might be here if:

  • You play regularly in competitive social play, ladders, or leagues.
  • You can control pace but need better decisions in fast exchanges.
  • You’re comfortable dinking and dropping but want to finish points more effectively.

Goal: Compete confidently in stronger league/tournament and advanced social environments.

Drills Pickleball Coaching (All Levels)

A high-rep training option designed to complement any clinic or regular play. Rotating ball-fed stations: serves/returns, drops, volleys, overheads, counters, and transition footwork.

Best for:

  • Players already taking a level-based clinic who want extra reps.
  • Anyone feeling “rusty” who wants structured touches without heavy strategy talk.

Goal: Cleaner mechanics, more confidence, and better conditioning.

Coached Round Robin Play

Live doubles play with real-time coaching. You’ll rotate partners and opponents while coaches give in-point and between-point feedback on positioning, shot choices, and tactics.

You might be here if:

  • You already understand your level’s basic skills and want to apply them under pressure.
  • You prefer learning through real games rather than long drill blocks.

Goal: Better decisions, better positioning, and more confident match play.

  • Who: Adults 17+
  • Where: Fairbank Community Center Gym (Court assignments listed in each registration)
  • How to Register: Pick the level above that best matches your game, then choose your preferred date/time from the registration options below (each listing shows the specific session dates and times).
