Pickleball Coaching International Anmeldelser 

I am glad to be shown some videos on the requirement for submission and is grateful that I am certified.

While I understand this is a full online certification, I wish there could be some form of face to face discussion via zoom etc.. to provide feedback on the submitted videos so as to help the participant improved further.

Online certification lesson and tests were convenient and helpful. The submitting of video evaluations had a criteria that was difficult to pass but also convenient to do the exercises at ones own courts. I learned a lot going through this cert.

This was straightforward , yet helped elevate my experience in coach I already had. I liked the drills, and better yet would be an app to use for helping coaches with different levels of students that come with a variety of drills to use according to their level.

I haven't gotten through all of it yet. But look forward to completing it in the next few weeks.

The Coaching evaluation actually has good standards that doesn’t let unqualified participants pass as coaches.

This gives the PCI certification more credibility as opposed to other certifications which have a 100% passing rate.

It was great and informative

I find it very difficult to access content and the usability is challenging for even someone in technology software development. Either I don’t have correct permissions or wrong URLS

The videos have been really helpful. Also the explanation of the technical aspects. I've been playing the sport for a few years now but this has been my best experience in pickleball.

This course is very fun and informative. It can be done at the individual’s own pace and in one’s desired location. The videos are clear and interesting. The tools are easy to use and the evaluation criteria are stated, documented and repeated for student understanding. I am looking forward to uploading my videos and receiving my level one coaching certification.

Informative. Open my eyes to different approach to coaching I wouldn't have thought of. I believe it will make me a better & effective coach that I hope to be.

Great instructional content, user friendly website, and amazong customer service!

Having taken a PPR workshop the day before, the PCI program was very informative and seemed more personal. Mark's experience and attention to detail really hit home.

Great information and techniques on how to really be an effective coach.

I enjoyed the day, and looking forward to the next step of my journey.

Pickleball Coaching International’s online certification program is an exceptional experience for anyone looking to become a confident, well-prepared pickleball coach.

Convenience and Accessibility:
The program is thoughtfully designed for busy professionals and passionate players alike. The online format allows you to move at your own pace, revisit key concepts, and complete modules from anywhere, making it both practical and flexible without sacrificing quality.

High Quality Instructional and Training Videos:
The videos are top notch, clear, engaging, and packed with tactical insight. Each lesson builds naturally from theory to practice, showing not only how to coach, but why certain techniques matter. The demonstrations on real courts, with real players, make the content immediately applicable and easy to visualize.

Mission, Vision, and Design:
What sets PCI apart is its clear mission and vision. Everything in the program connects back to real court experiences and the realities of coaching. The curriculum is not just about passing a test; it is about developing a deeper understanding of how players learn, improve, and find joy in the game. The structure makes perfect sense, giving coaches a strong foundation for what students need to learn, why they need to learn it, and how to support their progress effectively.

Bottom Line:
Pickleball Coaching International has created a program that combines convenience, quality, and purpose. It not only certifies you as a coach but also elevates your understanding of the game. It is a course that truly helps you grow on and off the court.

I’ve been coaching in some kind of professional setting for more than three decades. I’ve learned how to be a very effective coach over that period of time. So taking this CPI course was very helpful in not that it gave me more knowledge than I already had but instead confirmed what I was currently doing. I wish I would have taken this course 30 years ago it would have helped me be a more knowledgeable and highly effective coach much sooner without as many trials and errors to learn from. This is great program for new or old coaches. A few of the key ingredients are the “why” approach. Making sure we as coaches explain why it’s important to do something a certain way. Also the situational awareness was well established in the course. Which focus on doing something in the proper or real time context. Overall a great course which is really good, organized well and well laid out especially for new coaches.

I am truly impressed with the meticulous attention to detail throughout the course delivery, which made the learning process both enriching and seamless. The requirements are well-balanced, striking a fair chord for learners of varying expertise. The courses themselves are exceptional, blending engaging content with practical insights that inspire growth.

Lastly, I’d love to see the Level 2 Certificate program expand its reach with more course offerings in Asian countries like Malaysia and Vietnam, fostering greater accessibility for passionate learners in the region.

Thank you for an outstanding program, and I look forward to its continued evolution!

Mark and his team have a terrific set of videos with super-clear explanations in for your Level-1 Coaching Certification. The website is easy to navigate with a wealth of information. I highly recommend it!

We were advised to do the PCI coaching course by a senior Pickleball official who had completed several coaching courses and believed it was one of the most thorough and well resourced. I'm glad we did. It took longer than many of the four hour cert 1 courses offered, actually a couple of weeks for us, but it was self paced and unlike other coaching courses out there, it evaluated not only your own performance but how you instructed others in the skills necessary to play and improve in Pickleball. You had to upload video evidence of your skills and teaching practice. I believe we actually learnt a lot about how to coach, and why a particular skill was important to master so as to improve game play. Resources are good and the newsletter keeps us in touch with latest information. For Australians it is a bit pricey, given the exchange rate, but overall it is worth it.

If you want a serious and knowledgeable Pickleball coaching experience then the coaching certification through PCI is for you!
Don’t waste your money or time with any other Pickleball coaching certification institute out there, and this is from my first hand experience! They are only out for your money, and their educational videos are outdated, unprofessional, and very hard to hear with the reverberation of the coach/instructor in a hotel conference room setting! They bait you into their certification program and then switch the terms on you without notification. Then when you try to call them to question what they did, they ignore you and never return your calls or emails!
So I highly recommend the professionalism and Pickleball knowledge that PCI offers as number one in the industry! Way to go Coach Mark!

We are so lucky to have found this course just before our next session of teaching pickleball. We have done this without training for a couple years, and people keep wanting to learn, and now we are truly seeking better ways to teach. Thank you PCI and Mark for this awesome course for teaching people at all different levels!

Love PCI. I learn so much from them.
