Coaching / Clinics
A lot of people may not know this, but Diamond Pickleball originally started as a group of coaches running highly successful pickleball clinics across Los Angeles. As we transitioned into becoming one of the fastest-growing tournament series in Southern California, coaching has remained a huge part of who we are.
Today, our coaching team trains exclusively at the Wolf & Bear Indoor Pickleball facility. Click below to sign up for a clinic, or feel free to reach out to any of our coaches directly for private lessons or additional inquiries.
We also run educational, team building corporate events for companies across the city. More information below.
The Coaches
Carter Southern
My name is Carter Southern, and I’m a 5.0 player and PPR Certified Professional Coach. Over the past two years, I’ve had the privilege of coaching hundreds of players, embracing the unique challenges each one presents. Through this experience, I’ve learned that most roadblocks are simply self-imposed limiting beliefs. Every setback is an opportunity to learn and grow. It all begins with YOU, and I’m excited to help guide you through the journey!
