About your pickleball coach
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.

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. 😊

In one lesson, we worked on all phases of the game. There was immediate improvement on serving returning footwork paddle position at the kitchen line and stroke.
