Francesco is an amazing coach. I’ve had unapproachable, strict coaches that ran their lessons with an iron fist. While they definitely made me a better player, I never walked away feeling good about myself and would leave liking the sport a little less. First things I noticed about Francesco was his friendly attitude, strong communication skills, and amazing hand-eye coordination. If you’re looking for a coach that you can talk to, knows how to teach, and has the skills to back it up, then Francesco should be your number one choice.

I loved how fun, dynamic, and educational Francesco’s lesson was. You can tell he’s very passionate and knowledgeable about pickleball, which made the experience engaging and rewarding. If you’re interested in improving your game while having a great time, definitely give his lessons a try!

We did the drills in the kitchen using half the court. The focus is on reacting quickly enough before we dive into individual technique. Francesco is a really energetic and knowledgeable coach. I like his philosophy of teaching and will definitely try another lesson!

I just wish I was told that my teacher could only teach this one lesson and is now done, since I bought a 3-pack.
