About Me


Hi, I'm Joshua Tam! I coach focusing on decision-making, consistency, and repeatable shots. I believe techniques like dinking, resetting, and blocking are key to building a strong pickleball foundation. These are my greatest strengths that have allowed me to perform well in high-level money tournaments.


Whether you're brand new to pickleball or trying to break through a current level plateau (3.0-3.5-4.0+), my lessons are tailored to your specific needs!


I teach kids, teenagers, adults and group/family lessons!

My personal tournament results include 2nd place in 4.0, 4th in 4.5, and 2nd place in 5.0 DUPR events.
