In a loss, he'll highlight your strengths and discourage you being hard on yourself - everything takes time. I'm relatively new to the world of pickleball, but with his assistance, I feel as if any game is winnable. Aside from on the court coaching, he has also provided me with material to improve the mental aspect of my game. I highly recommend his coaching!
