Very knowledgeable. Drills were paramount. He relayed many tips on returning the ball and setting up for the next shot. Expounded on the difference in single and doubles playing. Highly recommend

I loved focusing on strategy and eye ball coordination during the lesson with Craig. His approach really helped me understand the game better and improve my skills. If you want to sharpen your pickleball strategy and placement, Craig’s lessons are definitely worth trying. It was a fun and engaging experience that I recommend to other players looking to up their game. 😊
