Hello future Picklehead! First off, I’m an avid pickleball superfan who has seen the transformative power of this sport in countless lives. I became hooked on pickleball during a summer at Keswick Park, where I discovered a warm, vibrant, and inclusive community. As a certified Level One coach with Pickleball Canada, I dedicated myself to teaching newcomers and strengthening their connection to the sport.

Recognizing the threat of losing outdoor courts due to harsh winters and limited indoor facilities, I realized the urgent need to expand Canadian pickleball communities. To address this, I’ve been actively involved in building, renovating, and repurposing dedicated pickleball facilities throughout the country. Our first facility is nearing completion, and I invite you to join us on this exciting journey. Together, we can continue to enhance the pickleball experience for players across Canada.
