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. By emphasizing technique and repetition, I help players improve their confidence on the shots, reduce errors and win more.
"Darren was very encouraging & patient with repeating instructions. We appreciate his insight into the game as well since we came in no knowing anything other than a desire to try something new!

"I think this lesson was pretty helpful overall, especially since I made a lot of progress on figuring out what I’ve been doing wrong. James's input really clarified some key points, which I hadn’t fully understood before. Though I still need to practice more, I feel more confident about improving my swing and avoiding those mistakes again. It’s encouraging to see tangible results from just this one lesson, and I’ll definitely try to build on what we discussed.
