Welcome to Lake Country's new home for indoor pickleball.

Kyle Selinko

Kyle first discovered the sport of pickleball in 2016. His initial passion was to pursue a career as a professional player. Playing alongside Zane Navratil in 2018 and 2019, they won many tournaments throughout the Midwest. He currently has a DUPR rating of 5.7 and recently won Gold in the US Open in the Men’s Doubles 25–29 age category.

In 2020 he switched his focus from playing pickleball to broadcasting pickleball. Kyle’s broadcasting company BoxCar Productions has broadcast/streamed more pickleball events than anyone in pickleball. He was the official broadcast partner for The APP Tour and USA Pickleball from 2020–2022, and Major League Pickleball in 2023. He has also live streamed Minor League Pickleball, DUPR Collegiate events, and for The PPA Tour.

Kyle has helped over 300 players in Lake Country both improve and find enjoyment for the game. He has coached from the beginner level up through 5.0 players.

Arielle Butler

Arielle began playing pickleball in 2018. After climbing the amateur ranks, she won gold in Pro Mixed Doubles at the 2022 APP Indianapolis Open. As a member of the Gilbert Gladiators in the Arizona Pickleball League in the fall of 2023, Arielle helped her team take home the first place title. She won a bronze medal in the APP Women’s Open and finished as a semi-finalist in women’s doubles at the 2024 US Open, 2024 APP Chicago Open, and 2025 APP Ft. Lauderdale Open. She is currently ranked #12 on the APP Tour.

Trever Siegman

Trever discovered pickleball during high school, initially drawn to the sport’s unique blend of strategy and agility. What began as a casual pastime quickly turned into an obsession, as he found joy in the game’s community and competition.

Over the years, Trever has honed his skills on the court, participating in local tournaments and building lasting friendships with fellow players. His passion for pickleball has not only influenced his personal life but also seeped into his professional endeavors. Trever has produced promotional specs highlighting the sport, aiming to inspire others to take up pickleball and showcase its vibrant culture.

Dennis & Kellie Mueller

Dennis & Kellie have called Lake Country home since 2003. They have three adult children and four grandchildren. Kellie is a fan of pickleball and is looking forward to when her granddaughter takes up the sport. Dennis has been hooked on pickleball for the past 5 years and has Kyle and Arielle to thank for helping him learn the game. Although they spend winters in Arizona, they wanted to provide the community with a top notch gathering space that could be used year round. The combining of Fortify Pickleball with The Social creates a best in class entertainment venue for active families no matter what their stage in life.

Nora & Bill Butrym

Nora and Bill have been athletes and sports enthusiasts all their lives. They played and coached their three children through basketball, baseball, soccer, volleyball and track while living in Illinois for 30 years before moving to Oconomowoc in 2020.

They were introduced to pickleball back in 1996 — yes, 1996 — when they moved into a house that had a pickleball court in its backyard! It was the heart of the neighborhood, bringing adults, kids, families and friends together for friendly and quite competitive play over the years. That court was busy from morning to night! Pickleball has meant community to them ever since, and they want to be a part of keeping it that way by bringing Fortify Pickleball to Lake Country for year-round play at The Social.

Al & Michelle Schmitz

Al and Michelle Schmitz have called Lake Country home their entire lives, where they raised their three children and remain deeply rooted in the community. While they spend winters in Naples, FL, Lake Country is always where they come back to — and the pickleball courts are never far behind. Active by nature, Al and Michelle discovered pickleball as the perfect blend of competition, connection, and the simple satisfaction of watching your game get better the more you play — a feeling they see reflected in friends and neighbors every time they step on the court. With Al’s parents still playing twice a week in their 80s, they know firsthand that pickleball is a sport for every generation. Investing in this facility was a natural extension of their love for Lake Country and their belief that great communities deserve great places to play.

Jim & Lisa Winkler

Jim and Lisa have lived on Okauchee Lake since 2004 and currently split their time between Lake Country and Scottsdale, AZ. They have five grown children and 4 grandchildren, most of them living in Lake Country as well.

Lisa and Jim are entrepreneurs that have been involved in health and wellness for the last 30 years and see pickleball as a great way for people to achieve a healthier, happier life. Over the last five years they have developed a shared love of pickleball and their goal is to introduce the sport to as many people as possible.

Jim is a DUPR Coach and loves helping people improve their game. He recently won a Bronze at the US Open in the Mixed Doubles 4.0+, 60–64 age category and his goal is to play on the Senior Pro Tour in the near future.

They are extremely excited to bring the Fortify premier indoor pickleball club to the Lake Country area and share it with their community of family and friends.

Matt Neumann

Matt is a local philanthropist, investor, and business owner. He lives with his wife and four kids in Hartland and his businesses are headquartered in Pewaukee. Matt is a partner at companies in multiple industries including housing development, renewable energy, and general aviation. His land development company is the developer of the land surrounding and including the old Olympia ski hill, which is how he got involved in The Social and Fortify.

Matt is excited to be giving back to the local community by playing a small role in bringing the ski hill back to life by creating a fun and engaging project filled with year-round family activities. While Matt isn’t an avid pickleball player (yet), he’s a competitive athlete that looks forward to learning the game alongside the area’s best players and teachers as a partner in Fortify.

Chris & Nancy Olson

Chris and Nancy have been Lake Country residents for over 40 years raising a family in Oconomowoc. Both have been involved with racquet sports their entire adult lives. Currently an avid pickleball player and a silver medalist at the U.S. Open, Chris was instrumental in the development of the 20-court Northeast Park pickleball complex in Oconomowoc. Now, the Olsons are proud and excited to be involved with construction of Fortify Indoor Pickleball Club at the Oconomowoc Social.

Matt & Kristin Carroll

Matt and Kristin are big fans of pickleball because it is a great lifetime sport and a great way for people to connect and make new friends. Matt is an avid pickleball player. He enjoys both the competition and camaraderie of play and improving his game through drills, lessons, and watching an astounding amount of pro pickleball. They are excited to help bring high-quality indoor pickleball to the area through Fortify at The Social.

Bill & Jill Czech

Bill grew up and still lives in Lake Country. He fell in love with the game after retiring in January of 2023. Bill plays at least 5 times a week either when in town here or snowbirding in Florida. It’s Jill’s fault, as she got him started playing this crazy game. Bill is a 2026 Silver Medal winner at the US Open in Naples.

Jill is an Illinois transplant and has lived in Lake Country for over 40 years. She loves playing pickleball, hiking, skiing, kayaking and being outdoors whenever she can be.

We look forward to playing with old friends and meeting new ones at Fortify at The Social.
