Coach Bodie

When working with kids, the emphasis is on keeping the lessons active, playful, and easy to understand. I simplify the rules, shorten the games, and use fun drills that feel like challenges rather than technical practice. The focus is less on perfect form and more on developing hand-eye coordination, learning the basic strokes, and building excitement for the game. By celebrating small wins and keeping the pace upbeat, kids stay engaged while naturally picking up the fundamentals of Pickleball.
