ABOUT PICKLEBALL
Pickleball is a great strategic, challenging and fun game. A racquet sport containing some aspects of tennis, table tennis and badminton, and of course its own uniqueness and quirks. It's as basic as picking up a paddle, ball and go!
​
So, to enjoy pickleball, all you need is a paddle, a ball... and another player if you want to rally and/or play a game... plus the desire to keep the ball and one's self moving.

ABOUT ME
​
Hi and welcome to my site! My name is John and I am a life-long sports enthusiast, playing many types of team sports and racket sports. I have been part of the Montreal Chinese Association's Hung Ying Volleyball Club's women's team for many years, coaching and training them. I enjoy teaching local community based activities for youth in volleyball, badminton, dodgeball, ultimate and pickleball. I've been fortunate enough to also give back to my community by coaching in local schools.
​
I recently discovered pickle ball just over a year ago, enjoying and learning so much that I became a certified instructor with the International Pickleball Teaching Association (IPTPA), and have been playing and training to improve my skills. I'm proud to say that I am now the head club pro at the newly formed and sanctioned Club de Pickleball Montreal-Lachine (CPM-Lachine formerly the Montreal Pickleball Club) and an instructor with the West Island Pickleball Club.
​
I'm also a Black Knight Brand Ambassador for Pickleball!
