Meet Coach Diego Liberczuk - Your Guide To Building The Right Foundation

I’m a PPR Certified Pickleball Coach who has played and coached across seven countries over 14 years. Students I coached years ago still message me about a phrase or concept that transformed their game – that’s the standard I hold every session to.

When I first picked up a paddle, I competed against players 20 years my age. That experience taught me immediately: this sport is a great equalizer, and with the right coaching, anyone can improve faster than they think.

I’ve dedicated my coaching career to one mission: helping seniors build the correct pickleball foundation that creates lasting improvement on the court.

My Credentials:

PPR Certified Pickleball Coach – Professional Pickleball Registry
14 years of pickleball experience
International coaching footprint – played and coached in 7 countries: the US, Uruguay, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, Puerto Rico, and Australia
5 years of dedicated coaching experience
4.5-level competitive player – active high amateur competitor
My students have earned 1st and 2nd-place finishes in tournament categories

My approach: I coach differently from most instructors, and there are three specific reasons why.

First, I build understanding through language. I’ve spent years creating original terminology, concepts, and acronyms that make key lessons immediately clear and permanently memorable.

Second, I coach the individual, not the group. My sessions start with listening and observing. I identify the specific habits holding each player back, not the general mistakes that affect everyone.

Third, I focus on joint-friendly mechanics. I want every player I coach to still be playing at 70, 80, and beyond.

Put all three together, and you get something most senior camps never offer: instruction that’s immediately clear, personally targeted, and built to last.

Whether you want to improve your fitness, develop your skills, compete in tournaments, improve your DUPR, or simply have more fun on the court… I’ll help you play with confidence and consistency while preventing injuries.

Players who train with me experience complete game transformations.

They win through intelligent positioning and shot selection, not exhausting power.

They understand the mental game.

They play multiple times a week with energy.

They build lasting friendships while leveling up their game.

WHY SMART DRILLING WORKS SO WELL FOR SENIORS

Most advanced beginner sessions overwhelm players with too much too fast.

I’m different.

Here’s my philosophy: Purposeful Drilling = Lasting Improvement

You don’t get better by doing more. You get better by doing the right things, correctly, at a pace that works for your body – with an international coach who has built a proprietary teaching system watching every rep and building the kind of muscle memory that holds up in real games.

And here’s what I’ve seen time and time again coaching seniors:

That moment when your dink lands softly in the kitchen – every time.

That quiet satisfaction when your serve goes in – consistently, every time.

That feeling of rallying back and forth with real control – not scrambling, not guessing. Just playing.

You don’t need to work harder to feel that improvement. You need to work smarter. Right there on the court. Every session.

That’s why purposeful, paced drilling is at the heart of everything I do with this group.

Player Stories

See why 98% of our campers recommend this camp.

Have You Ever Walked Off The Court Wishing You Had Played A Little Smarter?

You know that feeling when you replay the match in your head…

…thinking about the shots that got away from you?

…noticing that you were working harder than you needed to?

…sensing that gap between the player you are and the player you know you could be?

That changes on August 22nd.

Because by the time you walk off the court, something will have shifted. Your positioning will feel more natural. Your decisions will come more easily. And the next time you play, the game will feel just a little more under your control.

Imagine This: It's Monday, August 24th (Two Days After Camp)

You walk onto your regular court for your weekly game.

As soon as you start warming up, your playing partners look over.

“Something’s different about you today.”

Your serve is going in. Your dinks are landing soft. You’re getting to the kitchen. The players around you notice. Someone asks if you’ve been taking lessons. You tell them you went to a camp – and watched everything click in a single morning.

By the end of the session, they’re asking what you did. By the time you leave, they’re asking if you’ll share where you learned it.

That’s the difference between who you are right now and who you’ll be after the camp.

And it all starts the moment you register.

WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY WALK AWAY WITH (The Real Outcomes)

You'll Have the Fundamentals That Take You to 3.0

I’ll teach you the specific skills, serving, returning, dinking, volleying, positioning, that define the 3.0 player. Not just the theory. The actual reps, the correct form, the muscle memory that holds up in real games.

You'll Meet Your New Playing Friends (And Stay Connected)

I’ll connect you with other players at your exact skill level. You’ll exchange numbers, join the Obsessed Pickleballers Community together, and stay connected with everyone you meet.

You'll Stop Guessing and Start Knowing

I’ll eliminate the uncertainty that’s been holding you back. Should you dink or drive? You’ll know. When do you move to the kitchen? You’re already moving. How do you handle the fast ball? You’re ready.

You'll Build the Habits That Hold Up Under Pressure

I’ll make sure every rep in this camp builds the right habits – not the ones that feel okay now but break down under pressure. My analytical approach means I identify each player’s specific mechanical issues with precision rather than guessing, and then fix them with joint-friendly, body-safe techniques designed to keep you on the court for years to come.

You'll Leave Feeling Energized About This Game

I’ll remind you just how enjoyable pickleball can be when it feels effortless. You’ll leave feeling good, physically and mentally, and already looking forward to your next time on the court.

On August 22nd, the love for the game gets refreshed.

Because when pickleball feels easy, flowing, and fun, that’s when you truly fall in love with it all over again.

Frequently Asked Questions

What skill level is this camp for?

This camp is designed specifically for seniors at the 2.5-3.0 level. The drills, strategy lessons, and coaching are all calibrated for players who are getting comfortable with the game and are ready to build a real foundation toward 3.0.

I don't have a DUPR rating. Would I be eligible?

Absolutely. You don’t need a DUPR rating. The 2.5-3.0 range simply helps you understand who this camp is designed for. If you consider yourself an advanced beginner who’s comfortable with the fundamentals and ready to level up, you’re in exactly the right place.

I'm closer to 2.5 than 3.0. Will I be able to keep up?

Yes. My analytical coaching approach means I assess each player individually and tailor instruction to their specific needs. You’ll be challenged appropriately and always moving forward – never overwhelmed.

What should I bring?

Just bring your paddle, court shoes, athletic wear, protective eyewear (optional), water, some snacks, and a towel.

Will I get one-on-one attention?

Yes. With a maximum of 8 players, you’ll receive plenty of personalized feedback throughout the session. My analytical background means I quickly identify each player’s most important improvement area and target it with precision – not generic corrections that apply to everyone equally.

I'm worried about keeping up physically. Will the pace be manageable?

Yes – and this is something I take very seriously. The session is thoughtfully paced from start to finish. I focus on joint-friendly mechanics specifically because I want every senior I coach to still be playing at 70, 80, and beyond. We warm up properly, we don’t rush through drills, and we finish with a proper cool-down.

Is this camp indoors?

Yes. Bangers & Dinks is an indoor facility.

When do I get the bonuses?

Immediately upon registration:

Perfect Guide eBook (instant download)
Community access (login credentials sent to your email)

You can start learning before you even arrive. The SURPRISE bonus will be sent to you after the camp.

I've done camps before and didn't improve much. Why will this be different?

Because I coach the specific habit holding you back, not a generic curriculum. My proprietary coaching system, 14 years of playing experience across seven countries, and focus on joint-friendly mechanics give me the ability to assess each senior player quickly and target corrections with precision. Every drill has a purpose. Every correction is targeted to you specifically. And you walk away with lifetime community access and ongoing coaching support.
