Hi! During my high school and college years, I played varsity tennis and even earned an invitation to the Junior Davis Cup tryouts.

These days, I've immersed myself in coaching pickleball, drawing from my rich tennis background to nurture and elevate players in this exciting game. Recently won the Gold Medal 🏅in the Mixed Doubles at the Tri-Valley Pickle Ball Championships.

"I’ve had a really good experience with Trevor’s lesson, especially since I felt I learned some key things about my swing and course strategy. Still, I think there’s room for more focus on some fundamentals, but I’m optimistic about continuing to improve. If you're considering a lesson, Trevor's approach is quite straightforward and quite helpful. Maybe give it a try.

I'm Coach Darren and I specialize in improving skills through targeted drills with a pickleball machine. My focus is on addressing weaknesses and specific shots such as more consistent and powerful backhands, hitting speedups and defending them, third shot drops, topspin rolls, resets, countering slices and dinking and flicks.
