Est. 1998 · 28th Season
Learn the system that's produced more national champions than any other paddle camp. Nantucket Island — September 2026.
Four sessions in September. Three days of intensive instruction from APTA Hall of Famers and national champions. Your team books a court — we handle the rest.
View SessionsBring Performance Paddle Camp to your club. We travel to your facility with our coaching team and run a customized program for your members and teams.
Request a VisitPaddle is a doubles game. We teach you how to move, communicate, and execute as a team. You'll learn where to be, when to switch, and how to make your partner better.
Court positioning wins more points than big shots. We drill the exact spots that give you control of the point — on offense and defense — until they become automatic.
Knowing what shot to hit matters more than how hard you hit it. We teach shot selection, screen patterns, and how to think 2–3 shots ahead in every rally.
Four sessions. Eight courts per session. Limited availability. Courts are booked by a team captain at a fixed price.

"For the first time our players have a plan they can utilize at every level of competition. Every week at interclub our students are explaining the reason for winning was 'our opponents didn't know the system.'"
Former Director of Racquet Sports, Aronimink Golf Club
"Performance Paddle Camp was the best decision our club has made for their paddle members. Everyone improved from beginner to advanced. Beginners learned the foundation the proper way and the advanced players took their skills to a new level."
Port Washington Yacht Club, NY
"I'm not physically exhausted the next day and my body is not screaming at me. I think this is because I'm in the right place on the court and not scrambling everywhere."
