Meet your coach

Coach Dean

Howdy, I’m Coach Dean Porter. I taught tennis at a country club in Ohio for 38 years. After retiring, I moved to Sun City West, Arizona. I’ve run pickleball for our community for the last 10 years. I also had knee surgery at 66. I know why a sensible plan matters.

I teach placement, dependable shots, and a game that respects your limits.

Every picture of me on this site is an illustration.
