About Ethan

I'm an avid pickleball enthusiast, playing regularly about twice a week. While I primarily focus on singles play, I also enjoy the world of doubles. What sets me apart is my advocacy for playing pickleball with disabilities, as I personally use a prosthetic device. My mission is to teach pickleball in a loving and accepting way, demonstrating that this sport can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of their condition. Let's hit the court and celebrate the inclusivity of pickleball together!
