"Max was able to provide a well rounded overview of pickle ball in our hour session. I believe I could walk into an open game and not embarrass myself too bad.

My name is Mike Parker, and I am a former USPTA P2 and PTR Level 2 certified tennis professional. Throughout my playing career, I was a two-time ASC East All-Conference Second Team selection in both singles and doubles, the 2009–2010 ASC Newcomer of the Year, and a junior college regional finalist. I also had the honor of serving as captain of my university team during my senior year. I completed my junior training at the renowned Austin Tennis Academy, where I had the opportunity to work with some of the best teaching professionals in the country. Those experiences shaped my coaching philosophy—built on hard work, discipline, and the constant drive to become the best version of yourself both on and off the court. I look forward to the opportunity to help you or your child reach your tennis goals and develop a lifelong love for the game.
