I am a PCI-certified Pickleball coach with five years of coaching experience, and I bring a relaxed, welcoming energy to every session.

Each lesson combines targeted drills with game play, so you can put new skills into action while enjoying your time on the court. I coach players in Cary and nearby communities, including Apex, Raleigh, Durham, and Morrisville. As a Selkirk Advocate, I can provide paddles to demo and help you find a good fit for your needs.

"Ed was quite helpful, especially with my net game, emphasizing paddle control and passing on helpful tips like holding my ground and hitting down on lobs. Still, more practice on dinking and unattackable serves would be great, though I left feeling more confident. If you're interested in sharpening specific skills, Ed's a solid choice to try out.
