Hikari Mamata

Pickleball hooked me from the start — the energy, the community, and those game-changing rallies. I’m Hikari, Pickleball Coach in Western Mass, and I’m here to help others experience that same spark. I live in South Hadley with my wife Rachel, our baby Milo, and dog Shiso. When I’m not coaching, I’m brewing my own coffee, running trails, or enjoying hot pot. As a coach, I focus on building solid fundamentals in a fun, relaxed way. Whether you’re new to the game or prepping for a tournament, I’ll help you grow your skills and confidence. Here’s how I can help: Learn to Play – Get familiar with the rules and jump into a game. Private Lessons – Personalized plans to reach your goals. Competition Prep – Get tournament-ready with targeted drills and strategies. Reach out and say “Hello”! I look forward to being a part of your pickleball journey.
