Kris Schwartz

I love Pickleball; for the fun, the new friends, the active lifestyle, and the competition. Spending most of childhood on the tennis courts in Stillwater, I played competitive tennis from the age of 10 through college. Pickleball allows me to compete again; and I have the added bonus of having my sister for a doubles partner.

I started playing Pickleball 5 years ago, and now spend as much time as I can on the court. There is nothing like seeing the joy on a new player’s face when they make contact with the ball for the first time. I use a student centered approach in my teaching. I realize that people play Pickleball for many different reasons. You may be a beginner checking out the sport, newly retired looking for a new hobby, or someone working to bring your game to the next level. The sport is approachable and there is something in it for everyone.
