With a 30 year tennis playing and coaching career, culminating with a top 40 national ranking and playing D1 at the #1 spot, Andrew was convinced to try pickleball on a whim 4 years ago. He was instantly hooked and immediately began a pursuit of competition and knowledge that took him across the country. He loves every minute of playing and teaching, and the most rewarding part is seeing his students put lessons, tips, and tricks into their gameplay. He competes in tournaments when he can fit them into his busy schedule raising 3 kids with their own athletic aspirations. He is Selkirk/PCI certified and plays at the 5.0+ level.

"Andrew was super nice. He came prepared and on time. He has strong court knowledge and we had a great hitting session.
