Hi, I'm Coach Henry. Before diving into my background, I want to share my passion for coaching. I am dedicated to helping players refine their game and discover their own love for the sport. As a 4.5 rated Pickleball player with more than a year under my belt, I've built upon my history as a former 5.0 tennis player. I decided to switch to PB for a change of pace and soon made my mark by winning multiple tournaments at the 3.5 level. Our lessons will thoroughly cover both the forehand and backhand techniques, always emphasizing the critical importance of a correct follow-through. Join me, and together we'll ensure you have the skills and confidence to compete with anyone on the court!
"I’d say Henry’s lesson was quite focused and helpful, especially with opportunities for improvement in mind. The emphasis on form and problem areas was pretty clear, and I feel more confident about sharpening those skills. Though I still need to work on a few specifics, it’s encouraging to see steady progress. Still, I might try a couple more lessons to really hone in on those details.

Having honed my craft over three decades, I'm passionate about fostering a love for basketball in every student. My coaching philosophy centers around building a strong foundation of fundamental skills while nurturing each player's individual talents and building lasting relationships with those I coach. I have done most of my coaching at the high school level, for both boys and girls. On the individual training level, I have been working for 13 years with a huge range of players from 3rd grade students all the way up to NBA All-Stars.

Grew up playing tennis and racquetball, so making the transition was easy. I have been playing for 5 years and won a championship on a recent cruise. I love the Pickleball game and enjoy playing and teaching others how to play!
"Bill is quite good at making the learning process feel approachable, and his patience really stood out during the lesson, especially since he explains things in a relatable way. Though I think more serve practice and additional info could make the lessons even better, I still left feeling more confident on the court. Still, if you're looking to improve your game with someone who's easy to work with, Bill's worth trying out.

Basketball is mental, physical , and full of skills . 85 % Mental 15 % The Sauce. In today’s game you must master the basics and use effective techniques to get anywhere you want to on the court and play multiple positions. My goal is to use my God given understanding and experience from playing college and professional ball, to give you give back and to share the tools that I’ve learned.

I discovered tennis early in life starting playing around age 10 and over the next 30 years it naturally became an innate passion. As a youth and young adult I spent my summers at Newcombe as a camp counselor-pro. Then after HS I joined the UTSA mens singles team. I choose a career and have spent the last 17 years in Real Estate / Sales Management. I have been playing club tennis on and off and due to my caring nature this also means I've been coaching as well. WEITHER ITS Dropping SOME WEIGHT, PREPARING FOR A TOURNAMENT OR JUST AN INTRODUCTION TO THE SPORT I GUARANTEE YOU WILL EXCEED YOUR GOALS. I love people, helping and the satisfaction that comes with watching someone improve their game so more often then not I was asked to join the pro staff to help players of all ages. I will work with anyone 10-65 years of age pending a letter from a doctor clearing individuals over 55. THANK YOU AND HAVE A BLESSED DAY,
"I just started with him but already have 4 girl friends that all want lessons from him. I don't think you can be as in shape as he is without practicing what he preaches. He is always smiling and such a joy. I would pay him to teach me how to kick a wall lol

I’ve played volleyball since middle school and i’ve been through many different coaches and techniques and i’ve always learned what’s best for me and had a coach that helped me through a lot. I want to be that for someone who is just starting their journey. I’ve loved volleyball since 6th grade and I didn’t start very good, but I had persistence and I accomplished many goals and I did get very good at volleyball. It did take a lot of determination, but what I know is most important is not just the training , but the mentality. If I was allowed to be a coach, I would teach my players that as their coach not only am I here to grow as a player but as a person. If I were to coach a young group. I would start by teaching them building your skills it’s important, but so is messing up, messing up is what makes us who we are and teaches us to not beat ourselves up over a mistake in a sport we feel passionate about. I’ve learned many techniques. I was an outside hitter, but I also did play as a DS therefore, I know to teach diving the correct way, 3-step approaches, 4-step approaches, the correct way to swing at a ball, timing, reading a hitter, etc. I do think it’s important to incorporate it into gameplay after learning, if you didn’t I feel it’s harder to learn without. Thank you!
