I'm thrilled to share my passion for pickleball with you. I am an adult educator with 35 years of experience and have discovered the magic of pickleball and fallen deeply in love with this fantastic sport. Currently a proud member of the Calgary Pickleball Club, you can find me regularly at the Calgary Pickleball Center, outdoor courts and at MRU, honing my skills and spreading the joy of the game. I recently completed my Level 3 Training with Calgary Pickleball Club. Last April my partner and I won the gold medal at local WRCA Tournament in Ladies Doubles in our bracket and this spring we took the silver medal in our bracket at the CPC Summer Tournament. In 2025 I completed my International Pickleball Teaching Professional Association (IPTPA) Level 1 certification and now also coach with Calgary Pickleball Club as well. This past winter I coached two 55+ Community Pickleball programs (Beginners and Intermediate) at Cardel Rec South. If you want to learn pickleball's basic rules, foundational techniques, and some of the main strokes, I'm here to guide you and get you started. Let's pick up those paddles and make every game a memorable one!
"I had a pretty good experience with Sheri’s pickleball lesson, and she was quite helpful and accommodating throughout. The lesson was enjoyable, especially since she made learning feel natural rather than overly technical. Still, I think I could benefit from more focus on serving techniques and understanding the game better, so I’ll look forward to practicing those aspects. If you're interested in improving your skills with a relaxed, friendly approach, you might want to give Sheri a try.

Thanks for considering me as your guide on your pickleball/tennis journey.
