"We’ve been very impressed with Coby. He connects wonderfully with my son (under 10), keeping him motivated and focused throughout each session. His background as a high-level junior shows in how thoughtfully he adapts lessons to address specific skills and growth areas.

Sponsored Local Amateur Pro Coach Chris came from Sacramento CA and brought his energy and skills with him! Hailing from a storied family of educators - Chris was born to be a leader and role model. His natural connection with students paired with 7 years of experience as a coach/sports director across Pickleball, Golf, Basketball, Baseball, and Spikeball creates an environment that is both comfortable and potential-tapping.

"Wow, Chris's lesson truly stood out because he took the time to understand my goals, which I appreciated quite a bit. I felt much more confident in my ball control and although I still need to work on improving my top spin, I'm optimistic about applying what I learned. I’d highly recommend Chris for a lesson that will leave you better by the time you leave.
