I have a passion for almost any racquet sport, but like many of you, I’ve truly fallen in love with pickleball. As a former college athlete and national leadership trainer, I combine my athletic experience with a focus on how the fundamentals of the game translate into finesse moves. I’m here to help you excel in both doubles and singles play, guiding you to develop your skills and become a leader on the court.

I'm an ambassador for Six Zero Pickleball and currently a 4.5 DUPR rated player. My tennis, ping pong, and badminton backgrounds have helped me transition into pickleball rather easily. (I guess it's a "racquet sports" thing) I primarily play at Plummer Family Park in Edwardsville, IL and the Rally Club indoor facility in Glen Carbon, IL where I'm a member. I also play in a handful of tournaments each year where I've been fortunate enough to typically medal in those tournaments. I enjoy helping people at all levels understand the basic fundamentals of pickleball, explaining strategies and tactics, as well as discussing the pros and cons of different types of equipment you should be using (paddles, shoes, sunglasses, etc).

"Rend showed up on time and communicates well! My husband and I learned so much in our first lesson, and he helped catch and adjust our technique or form whenever we can improve. I feel more confident and better about my plays already. Rend is very nice, and easy to work with and learn from. He also explains and teaches in a way that makes sense.

I specialize in teaching 2.5–3.5 players the what, how, and why of good pickleball so you build real skills and confidence—not just shots that work “sometimes.” I’ve coached hundreds of players at Vetta Sports and even taught as a Visiting Pickleball Instructor at Club Med Punta Cana. I bring drills and techniques I’ve learned directly from top pros and tailor them to make learning easier, clearer, and more fun. I’m a competitive 4.0+ player with medals from regional tournaments and experience on the inaugural St. Louis Shock Minor League Pickleball team. I also use tech and new AI tools to help pinpoint the quickest ways for you to improve. Let’s get you playing smarter, stronger, and having more fun on the court.
"I was fortunate enough to meet Jeff at the Webster Tennis Center where he was doing some organized beginner classes. I had been struggling with progressing as an intermediate player and asked Jeff for some individual instruction. I was able to work with Jeff individually for a few sessions and saw immediate improvement in my play in the transition zone. Jeff was patient, kind, and made several excellent suggestions, that have helped me to develop more consistency in my play. Jeff also helped me to re-grip my paddle and discuss ways to weight the paddle to gain better control and to diminish stress on my elbow. After a few initial sessions, I was able to set up group lessons for several of my playing partners and the feedback has been glowingly positive. Jeff is knowledgeable and approachable in his instruction and I would absolutely recommend him for anyone looking to improve their game.
