Hi, my name is Chris, and I’ve been playing pickleball for over 3 years with a strong passion for both competition and coaching. I’ve competed at a high level, including the Collegiate National Pickleball Tournament, after earning a bid to qualify. I focus on helping players improve fundamentals, strategy, and confidence, whether they are beginners or more advanced players. My coaching emphasizes clear instruction, game-like drills, and skills that transfer directly to match play. I bring a positive, energetic approach to every lesson and aim to make each session fun, productive, and motivating, helping players enjoy the game while improving quickly.

"Chris is a great coach. I’m a beginner and we focused on just a couple things so I wouldn’t have too many thoughts in my head. He broke down my movements and had me focus on fixing just one thing at a time. I’m a work in progress, but a little less so. More lessons will make me better! PS. This app sent us to a park with no courts and their customer service is…poor. Chris and I found another court a mile awayourselves. Again, he’s 5 stars. The app, 1.
