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 awesome and patient with us knowing we are beginners. He taught us step by step right from the very basics. We have 2 more lessons with him and looking forward to take more lessons. Highly recommended.
