I'm Coach Ronelda Wessels - Your Guide To The Next Level

I’m an IPTPA and PCI Certified Pickleball Coach with a 4.5 DUPR and over 20 years of multi-sport coaching experience, and I bring every bit of that expertise, energy, and encouragement to every single pickleball camp I run.

I’ve dedicated my coaching career to one mission: helping intermediate women build genuine confidence, sharpen their court strategy, and break through to the next level — especially women in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond.

My Credentials:

IPTPA Certified Pickleball Coach

PCI Certified Pickleball Coach

DUPR Rating Instructor

4.5 Competitive DUPR Rating

20+ years of multi-sport coaching experience

My Approach

I blend skills, drills, and smart court strategy to elevate your game… strengthening your fundamentals while sharpening the competitive tactics that keep opponents guessing.

I want every woman who walks onto this court to feel challenged, supported, and genuinely excited about her own improvement.

If you’re a 3.0–3.5 player who’s been stuck at the same level for a while, you’re exactly who this camp was built for.

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.

Women 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 improving their game together.

My Philosophy

Why I'm Obsessed
With Drilling

Most intermediate camps spend too much time talking and not enough time executing.

I’m different.

Here’s my philosophy: Drilling = Transformation

You don’t get better by listening to lectures about the third shot drop. You get better by hitting third shot drops repeatedly while a dual-certified coach watches and guides your reps.

And here’s the truth about why I’m obsessed with drilling:

Because let’s be honest, we all love that moment when we implement something new and it actually WORKS, don’t we?

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

That rush when you hit serves in a row to the same spot.

That feeling when your opponent fires a fast ball at you and you put it away cleanly.

You don’t have to wait weeks to see if the coaching worked. You see it immediately. Right there on the court.

That’s why drilling is the heartbeat of my intermediate women’s camps. Not because I think it’s good for you (though it is), but because it’s incredibly satisfying to watch a woman go from “I keep making that mistake” to “I just fixed it!” in a single afternoon.

Player Stories

See why 98% of our campers recommend this camp.

Remember The Last Time You Walked Off The Court Frustrated?

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

…thinking about all the shots you should have made?

…watching women you know you should beat walk away with the win?

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

That feeling ends on August 22.

Because by the time you walk off the court, something fundamental will have changed. Your body will respond differently. Your mind will read the game differently. And the next time you play, your regular partners will immediately notice something has shifted.

IMAGINE THIS: It's Monday, August 24 (Two Days After Camp)

You’re at your local pickleball court and you see a group of women playing.

But this time, instead of watching from the sidelines, you walk up confidently.

“Mind if I join?”

Your serves are landing deep and consistent, no more shanks, no more pop-ups. When they return, you’re already reading where the ball is going. Your third shot drop is pulling them out of position. At the kitchen line, you’re controlling rallies with patience and precision they’ve never seen from you before.

By the third game, they’re asking what you did. By the fifth game, they’re asking where you learned it. By the time you leave, they’re asking if you can teach them.

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, because the transformation begins before you even arrive.

What You'll Actually Walk Away With (The Real Outcomes)

You'll Control Rallies Without Wearing Yourself Out

I’ll teach you how to control rallies through intelligent positioning and shot selection, not power. You’ll start winning more points while using less energy, and that matters especially for us 50+ players. You’ll learn to play smarter, not harder.

01

You'll Meet Your New Women's Playing Crew (And Stay Connected For Life)

I’ll connect you with other passionate women at your exact skill level. You’ll exchange numbers, join the Obsessed Pickleballers Community together, and stay permanently connected with every woman you meet.

02

You'll Know Exactly What To Do In Every Situation

I’ll eliminate the hesitation that’s been costing you points. Should you drive or drop? Your body knows. When do you move to the kitchen? You’re already moving. How do you handle the lob? You’re executing before you finish thinking about it.

03

You'll Stop Making The Same Mistakes That Have Been Holding You Back

I’ll help you identify the technical flaws that are quietly limiting your game. Once I show you exactly how to fix them, the shots that used to frustrate you suddenly become your strengths.

Most women spend years battling the same weaknesses. You’ll correct yours in a single afternoon.

04

You'll Reignite The Passion You Had When You First Discovered This Game

I’ll show you how good you can actually be. You’ll leave energized, excited, and already planning your next time on the court.

Remember when you first fell in love with pickleball? When you couldn’t wait to play? If that feeling has been fading lately…

On August 22, it comes roaring back.

Because when you experience what it feels like to play at your true potential, when you finally break through that plateau, that’s when the obsession returns.
