Meet Coach Brien Hodgman- Your Guide to Playing Smarter

I’m a P4 Certified Professional, senior coaching specialist, and active 4.0-4.8 DUPR tournament competitor.

I’ve dedicated my long coaching career to one mission: helping senior players like you break through their plateau, play smarter, and discover what they’re truly capable of.

In 2017, I discovered pickleball, and it didn’t take long for me to realize this was the sport I wanted to focus on.

By 2018, I had fully committed to pickleball and immersed myself in learning every aspect of the game… strategy, shot selection, court positioning, and the small details that make the biggest difference.

 My Credentials:

  • 4.5 DUPR
  • 40+ years of competitive racquet sports
  • Specialized Senior Coaching credential – biomechanics and strategies tailored specifically to 50 and over athletes
  • Doubles specialist – footwork, court positioning, shot execution, shot selection, and partner communication
My approach: Along the way, I’ve experienced the challenges many adult athletes face. A rotator cuff surgery in 2021 and a second hip replacement in 2023 gave me an even greater appreciation for the importance of efficient movement, smart decision-making, and building a game that works with your body rather than against it.
 

Those experiences have shaped the way I coach today. Once you realize pickleball is all about playing smarter, it changes everything.

So, 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 intermediate sessions push players too hard, too fast, and send them home tired instead of energized.

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 a coach who has spent decades in competitive racquet sports and understands exactly what creates improvement for senior players without burning them out.

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

That moment when you adjust your paddle angle and suddenly your third shot lands right where you aimed it.

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

That feeling of rallying back and forth at the kitchen 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 July 24th.

Because by the time you walk off the court at 10:00 AM, 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 Sunday, July 26th (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 serves are landing deep and consistent. When they return, you’re already in position. Your third shot drop is working, pulling them out of place before the rally even starts. At the kitchen line, you’re patient, controlled, and comfortable.

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 Win More Points Without Working Harder

I’ll teach you how to control rallies through smart positioning and shot selection, not effort and power. You’ll start winning more points while using less energy. Playing smarter, not harder means you can play multiple times a week and still feel good afterward.

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 Know What To Do In Every Situation

I’ll help you eliminate the hesitation that’s been costing you points. Should you drive or drop? You’ll know. When do you move to the kitchen? You’ll feel it. How do you handle the lob? You’ll be ready before it even lands.

You'll Address the Habits That Have Been Holding You Back

I’ll help you identify the technical patterns that are currently limiting your game. When I show you how to adjust them, through purposeful drilling with clear feedback, the shots that used to frustrate you will start to feel natural.

Most players carry the same habits for years. A single good session can change that.

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 July 24th, 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 senior players at the 3.0-3.5 level. The drills, strategy lessons, and coaching are all calibrated for players who understand the game well and are ready to play it more intelligently and efficiently.

Absolutely. You don’t need a DUPR rating. The 3.0-3.5 range simply helps you understand the level this session is designed for. If you’re a comfortable intermediate player looking to improve your game intelligently, you’re in the right place.

Yes – and this is something I take very seriously. Having gone through a rotator cuff surgery and a hip replacement myself, I coach with a deep understanding of what senior athletes need. The session is thoughtfully paced from start to finish. We warm up properly, we don’t rush through drills, and we finish with a proper cool-down. Every player in this session is in the same stage of life, and I coach with that in mind.

Just bring your paddle, court shoes, athletic wear, water, some snacks, and a towel.

Definitely. With a maximum of 8 students, you’ll receive personalized feedback throughout the session. My specialized senior coaching credential and 40+ years of competitive racquet sports experience mean I quickly spot and address the specific patterns holding each player back.

Yes. Pickled! Woodridge is an indoor facility.
