Level 1
Graeme Smith
Graeme has a background in adventure pursuits such as mountain biking, rock climbing, back-country skiing and mountaineering. He is experienced mentoring and coaching adults in these activities and has a tertiary qualification in Outdoor Education.Pickleball has become a significant part of his life in the last couple of years after he decided to try something different and more 'age appropriate'. Lacking a background in other 'bat & ball' sports, it's been quite a learning curve. An enjoyable and ongoing process. Graeme enjoys working with people who are keen to learn and improve. While he brings a light-hearted supportive approach to his coaching, this is underpinned by his analytical mind. The aim is fun and learning in equal measure.

Level 1
Rob Wegner
My pickleball journey started over 3 years ago at the Torquay stadium. I have enjoyed being part of the early growth of the club and quickly became a true convert to the sport. After completing a level 1 coaching course a couple of years ago, I was motivated to improve and so competed in a number of competitions in Victoria and NSW. Since my retirement as a PE teacher, I have enjoyed being able to help others grow their skills and knowledge of the game. Hope to see you at the kitchen soon.
