MEET YOUR COACHES

Hi, We're Timothy Ton & Alvin Tabios!

Meet Your Elite Coaching Dream Team

We’re bringing together two of the most passionate pickleball coaches in Southern California for one exclusive camp—and you have a front-row seat.

TIMOTHY TON: The Global Pickleball Ambassador

I’m a Master Level Certified Pickleball Teaching Professional who’s dedicated my career to one mission: helping passionate pickleball players unlock their true potential through smart, strategic play…especially players in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond.

I’ve taken pickleball from San Diego to Mexico to Asia, and everywhere I go, I’m obsessed with one thing: watching that exact moment when confusion turns into confidence and a smile replaces frustration.

4 years of dedicated coaching experience
22 years of overall coaching expertise (tennis, surfing, salsa dancing)
PPR, IPTPA, and USAPA certified instructor
Competed internationally in Mexico & Asia
Gold, Silver, and Bronze medal winner in multiple tournaments throughout Southern California
Featured on Fox & NBC for pickleball excellence

My story? I went to Poinsettia Park one morning after my birthday, got twelve polite “no’s” trying to join tennis courts, heard the pop of pickleballs upstairs, and that moment marked the beginning of a full-blown pickleball obsession. Now I help others discover that same transformative moment.

My approach: I don’t just teach technique—I help you unlock joy, community, and a little bit of your own greatness, one dink at a time. This sport has taken me everywhere, from new courts to new countries, and introduced me to incredible people from all walks of life. Now it’s your turn.

MEET YOUR COACHES

Coach Alvin Tabios The Confidence Builder & Multi-Sport Master

I’m also a PPR Certified Pickleball Teaching Professional, and I believe in one simple truth: Confidence changes everything. When players feel supported, challenged, and excited to improve—that’s when the magic happens.

What I bring to your game:

3 years of pickleball coaching experience
Lifetime of coaching expertise across multiple sports
PPR certified instructor specializing in player development
Former baseball and martial arts coach
Expert in creating supportive, fun learning environments

My philosophy comes from decades of coaching: I’ve seen what happens when players gain confidence while having fun. Whether it’s perfecting a dink, improving footwork, or simply feeling comfortable on the court, I create an environment where you feel supported every step of the way.

I got introduced to pickleball by friends at a local court. What began as something casual quickly turned into a passion once I realized how competitive, social, and strategic the game is. I loved that it was easy to learn but offered endless opportunities to improve…and I became obsessed with helping others experience that same journey.

Here's what makes our combined approach unstoppable:

Timothy brings international experience and the ability to spot exactly when something clicks—then guide you through that breakthrough moment with precision.

Alvin brings multi-sport coaching mastery and creates the kind of supportive environment where players feel comfortable taking risks and pushing boundaries.

But here’s what we’re MOST excited about: The drilling. Lots and lots of drilling.

Not boring, repetitive drilling—but the kind of high-quality, focused drilling that builds confidence through repetition. The kind where you hit 40-50 balls in rapid succession and feel yourself improving in real-time. The kind that turns confusion into certainty.

We don’t waste time talking. We drill. You improve. You feel it immediately.

On March 14th, we’re bringing this combined expertise to just 16 lucky players in Carlsbad.

Why We're Obsessed With Drilling (And Why You Will Be Too)

Most camps spend too much time talking and not enough time doing.

We’re the opposite.

Here’s our philosophy: Drilling = Transformation

You don’t get better by listening to lectures about the third shot drop. You get better by hitting 20-30 third shot drops in a row while a coach watches and corrects you.

And here’s the truth about why we’re 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 10 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.

Why Players Rave About Our Camps — Straight From Them

See why 98% of our campers recommend this camp.

Yeah. I’m Gene Justman out of, Denver, Colorado, and, good nuts and bolts program on, playing pickleball. I learned to get low.

I learned to hit the ball long and towards the back line. Great program.

– Gene Justman

Hi, I’m Debbie from Oklahoma. I really enjoyed today’s drill. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it exceeded my expectations. I got plenty of reps, learned many new aspects of the game, and added to my toolbox. It was a great experience.

– Debbie

Hi, I’m Linda. I’m from Iowa. I joined the camp today. It was great to touch on all different aspects. We’re able to drill enough that we got good at all the different aspects. So I’m ready to hit the courts.

– Linda

A super helpful tip today thatI know I can apply immediatelyand some really great drills that my wife, who’s my playing partner, and I can can put to use this week as well. It was a great clinic.

– Camp Attendee

Hi. I just finished an Obsessed
Pickleballers clinic, and I would
recommend it to anyone who wants to get better. Mark has a great way of explaining things, and he teaches in a way that anyone can get better in the four hour session.

– Camp Attendee

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 players 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 ends on March 14th.

Because by the time you walk off the court at noon, 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 Tuesday, March 17th (Three Days After Camp)

You walk onto your local court for your regular morning game.

As soon as you start warming up, your playing partners stop and stare.

“What happened to you?”

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 Dominate Points Without Exhausting Yourself

We will teach you how to control rallies through intelligent positioning and shot selection—not power. You’ll start winning more points while using less energy.

Soon after camp, your opponents will work twice as hard for half the results. While they’re gasping for air, you’ll be fresh and ready for the next point.

This is especially important for us 50+ players: You’ll learn to play smarter, not harder, which means you can play multiple times a week without wearing yourself out or risking injury.

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

We will connect you with 15-20 other passionate 50+ players at your exact skill level. You’ll exchange numbers, join the Obsessed Pickleballers Community together, and have permanent contact with everyone you meet.

Nobody gets left behind. Whether you’re naturally social or more reserved, local or visiting, you’ll be welcomed and connected with the entire group through the community platform.

Then, after camp, the group chat starts buzzing with game invitations and practice sessions. By next month, you’ll have a regular crew of players who understand your goals, your schedule, and your commitment to improvement. No more showing up alone, hoping to find a good match.

You'll Know Exactly What To Do In Every Situation

We will 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.

Then, when you’re playing matches next week, your opponents will watch you differently. They’ll see someone who plays with confidence and certainty—someone who’s always one step ahead.

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

We will help you identify the 2-3 technical flaws that are currently holding you back. When we show you exactly how to fix them, the shots that used to frustrate you suddenly become your strengths.

Most players spend years fighting the same weaknesses. You’ll correct yours in a single morning.

The forehand that used to sail long?

Landing deep with topspin. The backhand you used to avoid? Now your go-to shot. The serves that made you nervous?

Setting up points in your favor.

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

We will show you how good you can actually be. You’ll leave buzzing with excitement, already planning your next practice session.

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

On March 14th, 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.
