Dave Lyle
Training Pro
Dave grew up on baseball, football, and pond hockey in northern New Jersey, has skied for sixty years, and followed his sons to Colorado. Friends dared him to try pickleball six years ago; he and his wife Karen dismissed it as not a real sport, then bought proper paddles on the drive home from the courts. Five years later he became a certified instructor. He has also coached youth soccer to college showcase level, youth baseball, a youth snowboard team, and tae kwon do, and he likes to make learning the sport fun.
