Hi, I'm Stacie Barron.
I'm founder and league director for Zia Pickleball. I fell in love with pickleball in 2017 and have dedicated my time to learning the game and competing at the highest levels. Along the way, I also discovered a passion for organizing competitive games for all levels of play. This is how Zia Pickleball was founded.
After many iterations and seasons of round robins and donation based team leagues, I settled on the current format of Flex Leagues. Zia Pickleball offers Partner Flex Leagues for Mixed, Womens and Mens Doubles, as well as, Singles and Skinny Singles.
Most recently I started running Ladder Leagues when clubs can provide dedicated courts. Ladder Leagues provide doubles competition at your skill level and refines the competition within your bracket by ranking players week to week.
My aim is to provide similar skilled players an avenue to meet more players in their area, while playing in a competitive and fun format. Both leagues have built in flexibility so that you can miss weeks without having to worry about forfeiting games.
I'm happy to run a league for your club or in your area that can be tailored to your demographics.
Stacie is also a certified teaching pro who provides private lessons as well as clinics. Contact her directly for rates and scheduling lessons.
Starting in the Summer of 2026, Zia will be partnering with The PICKLR Albuquerque East to bring YOU more pickleball leagues. Stay in the know and subscribe to League Announcements to know when new leagues are starting.
