Why I Created Tom’s Pickleball Hub
By Coach Tom Hincy · PPR Certified Coach · USA Pickleball Ambassador
Welcome to Tom’s Pickleball Hub. I created this website from a passion for pickleball and a desire to give back to a sport that has brought so much enjoyment, friendship, and purpose to my life.
Through playing, teaching, coaching, and helping grow local pickleball communities, I noticed a need for clear instruction and practical guidance. Players wanted to improve their game while building confidence and safer habits.
Learning with confidence
My goal is to help players learn the game and enjoy it for years to come. Whether you’re picking up a paddle for the first time, improving your court awareness, or developing your teaching skills, the Hub is here to support your next step.
Keeping safer play at the center
Movement, positioning, communication, and court awareness are an important part of how I teach. The message I return to is simple:
No point is worth risking an injury.
Resources to support your journey
You can explore the published books, download a free beginner’s manual sample, or use the Club Builder companion resources with your access password.
More resources are in development, including the Court Smart™ Training Manual, The Coach’s Court™ coaching program, and the Club Builder Leadership Learning Center module workbook.
At its heart, this site is about sharing knowledge, promoting safer play, and building stronger pickleball communities. Thank you for being part of it.
Keep Pickling,
Coach Tom Hincy
