Meet Your Coach

Hi, I'm Coach Stacey Mac
- Your Guide To Building The Right Pickleball Foundation

I’m a PPR Certified Pickleball Coach and lifelong multi-sport athlete and coach. And I’m one of the most passionate and driven coaches on the Obsessed Pickleballers roster.

I’ve dedicated my coaching career to one mission: helping women at the advanced beginner level build the solid foundation, confidence, and court awareness that creates a clear, direct path to 3.0 and beyond, especially women like you in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond.

My pickleball story has a chapter most coaches can’t match. I helped launch the very first community courts in the village of Nosara, Costa Rica, with my son, and built a player network that still exists to this day.

My Approach

Pickleball is fun, and I love sharing that joy with every player I coach. I watch my students progress, I help them reach their goals, and there’s nothing more satisfying than adding another obsessed pickleballer to our tribe.

Coaching comes naturally to me… it always has. And in this sport especially, the community you build on the court is just as meaningful as the skills you develop.

If you’re a 2.5-3.0 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.

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.

My Philosophy

Why I'm Obsessed
With Drilling

Most advanced beginner camps overwhelm you with too much too fast.

I’m different.

Here’s my philosophy: Repetition = Confidence

You don’t learn pickleball by watching demonstrations. You learn by actually doing it repeatedly, with correct form, with a coach watching every rep, and building the kind of muscle memory that holds up in real games.

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

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

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

That rush when your serve goes in deep and consistently.

That feeling when you rally back and forth with real control.

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

That’s why purposeful drilling is the heartbeat of my advanced beginner camps. Not because I think it’s good for you (though it is), but because it’s incredibly satisfying to watch someone go from “I can’t do this” to “I just did that!” 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 equal in level to you play with a confidence you haven’t found yet?

…feeling that gap between the player you are and the player you know you’re capable of being?

That feeling ends on July 18th.

Because by the time you walk off the court at 4:00 PM, 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, July 20th (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 moving to the right spot on the court. At the kitchen line, you’re patient, controlled, and keeping the ball low in a way that wasn’t there 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.

Your Breakthrough Awaits

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.

This is especially important for us 50+ players: You’ll learn to play smarter, not harder.

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

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

02 You'll Finally Know Where To Stand - And Why

I’ll eliminate the uncertainty that’s been costing you points. Who covers the middle? When do you move to the kitchen? What’s your job from each position on the court? After this camp, your body knows before you have to think about it.

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

I’ll help you identify the technical habits that are quietly limiting your game right now. Once I show you how to correct them, with the precision of a Gold medalist who has coached players from recreational to competitive tournament level for a decade, the shots that used to frustrate you become reliable.

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

That serve that used to feel shaky? Now landing deep and consistent.

The forehand that kept popping up? Now staying low.

The positioning uncertainty? Now automatic – before the ball even arrives.

04 You'll Fall in Love with This Game All Over Again

I’ll show you how good you can actually be. You’ll leave energized, confident, and already looking forward to your next time on the court.

Remember when you first fell in love with pickleball? How it made you feel? If that feeling has been fading lately, you deserve to have it back.

On July 18th, you will.

Because when your fundamentals are right and your confidence is real, that’s when pickleball becomes everything it promised to be.

This camp is designed specifically for advanced beginner women players at the 2.5-3.0 level. If you’ve been playing for a while, understand the basics, and are ready to make a real push toward 3.0, this camp is built for you.

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! I’ve been coaching sports since I was 16 years old, across various sports. I know how to meet every player exactly where they are and build from there. You’ll be challenged appropriately and never overwhelmed, and the warm, welcoming environment I create means every woman feels confident from the very first drill.

What should I bring?

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

Will I get one-on-one attention?

Definitely. With a maximum of 8 women, you’ll receive plenty of personalized feedback and individual attention throughout the camp.

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

Because I don’t just teach pickleball, I spread the stoke. I’m PPR/IPTPA dual-certified coach, and I’ve been coaching sports since I was 16. I know exactly what moves players from 2.5 to 3.0 because I’ve coached that journey across two countries and multiple sports. Every drill has a purpose. Every correction builds toward lasting improvement. And you walk away with lifetime community access, a clear roadmap, and a group of women to keep playing with.
