MEET YOUR COACHES
Hi, We're Jon Longway & Pete Nagy!
Meet Your Elite Coaching Dream Team
We’re bringing together two of the most passionate pickleball coaches in San Diego for one exclusive camp, and you have a front-row seat.
JON LONGWAY The Native San Diegan & Tournament Competitor
I’m a native San Diegan and 1980 graduate of Point Loma High School. I got started in pickleball during COVID when some friends introduced me to the sport, and I fell in love with it. I’ve been playing for 5 1/2 years, coaching for four years, and I just love the sport.
My credentials
- Over 4 years of hands-on coaching experience helping players improve faster and play smarter
- PPR Certified coach with a strong foundation in modern pickleball technique and strategy
- 18 tournament medals earned across multiple competitive events
- Active international competitor, including tournaments in Mexico
- Former coach in surfing, basketball, and baseball, bringing elite movement, balance, and athletic training to your pickleball game
- Focused on building confidence, consistency, and real on-court results
My Approach
I love to coach people of all levels, and I like to see the results of their hard work come to fruition when they play. There’s nothing more rewarding than watching students apply what they’ve learned and succeed on the court.
MEET YOUR COACHES
Coach Pete Nagy The Passionate Player Development Specialist
I originally started playing pickleball for the social aspect of the game. As a photographer working from home, I needed a way to get out, connect with people, and maintain my sanity. Once I picked up the sport and became more competitive, I wanted to improve my skills and play at a higher level. I became obsessed with learning everything I could about the game, and as I grew into a competitive player, I felt a strong desire to help others improve as well.
My credentials:
- PPR Certified instructor with a strong foundation in modern pickleball teaching methods
- Multiple 1st and 2nd place finishes in both same-gender and mixed doubles tournaments
- 1st place winner in 4.0 mixed doubles at Sports Fest in Ixtapa, Mexico and earned a free trip through the competition
- Brings a professional photographer’s eye for detail, helping identify technique issues others miss
- Known for contagious passion and energy that makes every session motivating, focused, and fun
My approach
When it comes to teaching pickleball, I bring both experience and enthusiasm to the court. My passion for the game is contagious, and students feel that energy during every lesson. I love seeing players leave the court with new skills, and a renewed sense of confidence they can carry into their next match.
Here's what makes our combined approach unstoppable:
Jon brings tournament experience from across Southern California and Mexico, plus multi-sport coaching expertise that helps him break down movement and technique in ways that just click.
Pete brings competitive tournament success at the 4.0 level and an obsessive attention to detail—from studying strategy to analyzing every aspect of the game—that transforms how students see and play pickleball.
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 real skills. The kind where you hit 40-50 balls in rapid succession and feel yourself improving in real-time. The kind that turns hard work into results you can see immediately.
We don’t waste time talking. We drill. You improve. You feel it immediately.
On March 7th, we’re bringing this combined expertise to just 16 lucky players in San Diego.

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 7th.
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 Tuesday, March 10th (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 aggressive—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’ll teach you how to control rallies through intelligent positioning and smart shot selection—not just power. You’ll start winning more points while using less energy.
Soon after camp, your opponents will be working twice as hard for half the results. While they’re gasping for air, you’ll stay fresh, composed, and ready for the next point.
This is especially important for us 50+ players. We focus on helping you play smarter, not harder—so you can play multiple times a week without burning out or risking injury.
You'll Meet Your New Playing Crew (And Stay Connected For Life)
We’ll connect you with 7–15 other passionate players at your exact skill level. You’ll exchange numbers, join the Obsessed Pickleballers Community together, and stay permanently connected with everyone you meet.
No one gets left behind. Whether you’re naturally social or more reserved, local or visiting, you’ll be welcomed and seamlessly connected with the entire group through our community platform.
After camp, the group chat starts buzzing with game invites 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’ll eliminate the hesitation that’s been costing you points. Drive or drop? Your body already knows. When to move to the kitchen? You’re already moving. How to handle the lob? You’re executing before you finish thinking about it.
When you step into matches the following week, your opponents will see the difference. They’ll see a player who moves 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’ll help you identify the 2–3 technical flaws that are quietly limiting your game. Once we show you exactly how to fix them, the shots that used to frustrate you become reliable strengths.
Most players spend years battling the same weaknesses. You’ll correct yours in a single afternoon.
That forehand that used to sail long? Now landing deep with topspin.
The backhand you avoided? Now a dependable go-to shot.
The serve that made you nervous? Now setting up points in your favor.
You'll Reignite The Passion You Had When You First Discovered This Game
We’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—when you couldn’t wait to play? If that feeling has been fading lately…
On March 7th, 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.
