Pickleball at the Ritz is a Lahaina-based pickleball program offering classes, clinics, and private lessons led by Coach Tim Fisher. Focused on teaching players of all ages and skill levels, Pickleball at the Ritz runs structured experiences including Kids Classes (the Hotshots program), a 90-minute Skills & Drills clinic, a 3-hour Introduction to Pickleball clinic, and personalized Private Lessons.
Sessions are designed to develop fundamentals such as hand-eye coordination, footwork, court positioning, shot selection, and doubles strategy. The Hotshots Kids Classes introduce children to the sport using elements of tennis, badminton, and ping pong, emphasizing teamwork and confidence in a supportive environment. The Skills & Drills clinic limits participation to eight players to ensure focused coaching and individualized feedback.
The Introduction to Pickleball clinic provides beginners with rules and fundamentals across a longer 3-hour format. Private Lessons are tailored to individual goals and include options for small groups and a downloadable video of the session for review.
