Play Pickleball at New River Middle School (Tennis Court)

With over 50 years in tennis, I've evolved from a high school state champion to an NAIA champ in college, later competing in the Big Ten with the University of Iowa. My career includes an undefeated senior year and participating in the USTPA. I've owned and taught at over 15 clubs, and currently run four, coaching players of all levels, including Florida State Champs and national junior champions. My passion lies in teaching, and I look forward to inspiring more students in the game of tennis.

"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. 😊

My love for pickleball stems from its unique blend of strategy, agility, and social interaction. As an experienced player with two years of coaching experience, I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and helping players of all levels elevate their game in a fun, encouraging environment. Let's get you on the court and unlock your pickleball potential!
