Meadowcroft ParkPickleball Venue in Pittsburgh, PA

I am a PPR certified Coach specializing in players at the 2.5 to 4.0 skill level. I am looking forward to offering lessons here to help players advance to the next level. With 35 years of coaching experience in Division 1 basketball and 4 years experience coaching racquetball and tennis, I bring a deep understanding of sports strategy, mental toughness, and skill development to the pickleball court. After discovering pickleball five years ago, I quickly became passionate about the sport and now combine my knowledge of coaching with my love for helping others improve their skills so they can develop as a player and enjoy the game at the highest level desired. I am an avid pickleball player with a passion for competition. I have competed successfully in recent tournaments, winning gold in both men’s doubles, 50-59 age bracket (4.0+ division) and singles, 55-59 division (4.0) at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Tournament in Pennsylvania. I also earned silver in the men’s doubles, 55+ (4.0+) in the Hall Of Fame Club Tournament in Ohio.

"Amazing coach. Even after just one session, I felt a significant improvement in my game. His extensive coaching experience is evident in the way he pinpoints weaknesses and provides clear, actionable feedback. He not only helps you correct those weak spots but also integrates them into your overall skill set for a more complete game. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to level up their pickleball skills.
