Hello, my name is Derek Parker. I am 23 years old, and I live and train in north Peoria/Surprise. I am a firefighter for the City of Peoria. My work schedule allows me to be very open and flexible. As a 4.5+ DUPR-rated player with experience competing in high-level tournaments, I bring both skill and passion to the court. My teaching style focuses on breaking down technique with precision—helping players understand not just what to do, but why it works. Whether you’re refining your footwork, improving shot selection, or developing advanced strategies, I emphasize the details that make a real difference in performance. I’m dedicated to helping you build a strong technical foundation and elevate your game with confidence.
"We practiced sinks, drops shots, backhand shots, serves, and returns.



I graduated from Golf Academy of America in 2017. Certifications in teaching and mechanics, custom club fitting, club repair and playing certification. Expert in GC Quad analytics. Open to all levels with focus on short game development and course management.
"The lessons really helped my putting. Focusing on start line and speed control has cut down my three-putts, and I feel way more confident over short putts now.
