Play Pickleball at Bushrod Park

My Pickleball story began in 2021, and it was love at first swing. I found myself on the courts 5-6 days a week, dedicating at least 3 hours each day to perfecting my game. I was hungry for improvement, so I embarked on a self-guided journey, delving deep into the nuances and strategies that make Pickleball so captivating. Today, I'm not just a player; I'm a mentor, a guide, and your biggest supporter. I'm here to help you ignite your passion for Pickleball, whether you're picking up a paddle for the first time or aiming to sharpen your competitive prowess. Let's embark on this journey together and transform your game, one swing at a time.

"Had the first lesson with coach Antoine, he is great! Started off with talking about our goals, and then assessing our skills, then working on each of our weaknesses and things to improve. He also gave us lots of pointers and strategies that are very helpful. Overall I am very happy that I gave this a try and it was time well spent!
