A lifelong tennis player with a current USTA 5.0 rating, I was a standout junior player, placing second in state, competing in national qualifier tournaments, and winning a club national title at UNC. Transitioning into coaching, I have been the head tennis coach at Lakes High School for the past three years. Our win total has increased each year, from one to four to six wins last year. Before coaching at Lakes, I provided tennis instruction at a country club and a youth sports organization.

Aloha! My name is Chrissi Omalza. I’m originally from the island of Oahu and have been living in Washington since 2021. I’ve been playing softball for almost twenty years and played collegiate softball for the University of Nevada Las Vegas from 2014-2018. I was a utility player in college but primarily was a catcher and third baseman throughout my career. During my nineteen years of playing, I've fostered softball skills with personalized guidance. My career off the field is a High School Special Education Teacher so I strive to cultivate a positive, safe, and inclusive environment for athletes to thrive and achieve their goals. Combining my teaching skills and softball experience allows me to create diversified training plans to fit each athlete’s needs because everyone learns and understands differently. I’m excited to get to work and share my passion and love for the game with you all!

My name is Ryan Rembisz, and I am currently a minor league free agent who just finished his first professional season this summer after pitching 4 years of NCAA Division 1 baseball for the University of Portland. I am known for throwing the 21st perfect game in NCAA D1 history this past season, being a 3x WCL player of the week, a 1st team all-WCC academic team recipient, an All-WCC second team recipient, and leading the WCC in innings pitched this year. I am 23 years old, currently training this offseason for my next pro contract, and love teaching the art of pitching to anyone that wants to learn. Through my 5 years of being a high level pitcher throwing 100’s of innings while jumping from 90-94 mph, I have never had an arm injury. I believe that preparing the body to handle the throw is 75% of the battle when it comes to pitching injury free, and that recovery is another 20%. I can work with all ages and levels of the game, and I understand how to adjust my approach given nuances in league, ability, and goal. Arm health is the number one priority for pitchers these days, as the key to throwing harder is simply staying healthy for long enough to get there in my opinion. A standard 1-on-1 lesson will look like stretching, throwing prep, catch play, bullpen/flatground work, post-throw, conditioning, and mobility. My goal is to educate my students on what they need, their deficiencies and strengths, and going over their individual technique and keys to success, to show them the bigger picture of how to effectively train pitching so that they can monitor themselves autonomously.

I’m Wayne Mendezona, Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Corban University and founder of Quick Handle Basketball. I’ve spent over 30+ years developing athletes and have trained more than 50,000 players—from youth to college and professional levels. I specialize in ball handling, scoring, and game performance—helping athletes build confidence, decision-making, and real in-game results. My training is not just drills—it’s about developing complete players who can perform under pressure, think the game, and separate themselves from the competition. I don’t train average. I train athletes who are serious about growth, discipline, and competing at a higher level. If that’s you, let’s get to work.

"My son said Coach Mendo was far and away the most effective coach he's ever worked with! His knowledge, tools, and willingness to share wisdom are incredible. I've never seen my son so impressed by a coach or heard him so enthusiastic about what he learned in a session. Very grateful!
