Steve Sellars, Pickleball Instructor
Steve discovered pickleball in 2021 and was immediately hooked. With a lifelong background in racquet sports, including tennis, racquetball, and table tennis, he quickly developed a deep appreciation for the strategy, skill, and social energy that make pickleball so uniquely enjoyable.
Today, that passion fuels his approach to coaching.
After a successful 40-year career as a business owner and licensed land surveyor, Steve has shifted his focus to what he enjoys most—helping others learn, improve, and have fun through sport. His extensive experience in teaching, coaching, and mentoring, combined with instructional certifications in martial arts and long-distance running, gives him a well-rounded and highly effective coaching style.
Players especially appreciate his patient, encouraging approach and his ability to break down the game in a way that makes it easy to understand and apply. Whether working with beginners learning the fundamentals or players looking to build consistency and confidence, he creates a supportive environment where improvement comes naturally.
In addition to coaching, Steve has been an active leader in the pickleball community through his work with the BOCO Pickleball Club, where he has served as a coach, board member, and event manager, further strengthening his ability to connect with and support players of all levels.
Now part of the Pickleball Food Pub team, Steve is excited to help players grow their game, build confidence, and enjoy everything pickleball has to offer.
