Play Pickleball at The Sandy Pickle

4.0+ pickleball level. Been playing racket sports from a very young age: a couple of years of serious tennis, 5 years of serious "Padel Tennis", some Racquetball, Badminton, and countless hours of serious Ping Pong with a few tournaments wins under his belt. Started playing pickleball 14 years ago and has really picked up on it as his favorite racket sport since the pandemic, quickly becoming very passionate about it and about teaching it as well. He'll teach you tips and tricks to improve your game to very quickly turn you into a serious contender.
