Special Events

Pickleball is an ideal activity for social and corporate team-building events, auction fundraisers and other group outings.

Contact me to discuss how I can help you organize  and facilitate a fun event that will bring your group closer together and leave everyone smiling and in good spirits!

Strategy Sessions

Pickleball is as much a mental game as a physical one. As you advance, it becomes a chess match of patterns and teamwork. I’ll help you and your partner master court positioning, shot selection, and advanced communication—like stacking and signaling—to turn you into a formidable duo. Bring your partner or a group, and let’s start outsmarting the competition.
