Pickleball is a sport in which two, three, or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a perforated polymer ball over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports, the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules similar to tennis, with a few modifications.

My background in tennis has led to my love for pickleball for the last few years. I have been an educator for many years and enjoy teaching others how to play pickleball. I am originally from Indianapolis, but now call Colorado my home.
I come from a tennis background, where I lettered all three years I played in high school. I recently got into pickleball over the last two years and have participated in various men’s singles and doubles tournaments across Colorado. I am also a two-time champion of the Lifetime Men’s League. I strive to make connections on the court while helping my peers improve their skills.
Ogi is a certified coach with over 20 years of professional experience in the tennis industry. He migrated his skills to pickleball four years ago and has coached as Head Pro/Director at various facilities in Colorado.
