Level 1 Coaches
Will Walford - Bedfordshire (happy to travel to surrounding Counties)
Level 1 Qualified
I’m a Pickleball England (PBE) Level 1 Club Instructor. I hold a strong passion for the sport and I believe it will only continue to grow as times goes on!
I’m currently training and competing nationally and am always looking for new ways to better myself and improve my coaching knowledge.
I’m more than happy to coach all ages and abilities, from beginners right up to national/international standard players. I also have a strong tennis background, where I competed regionally and nationally as well as being an LTA Qualified Level 3 Tennis Coach for almost 5 years (with 8 years of tennis coaching experience in total).
So if you’d like any lessons please don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to seeing you on-court!
IPTPA
Pickleball England also recognise the INTERNATIONAL PICKLEBALL TEACHING PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION (IPTPA) qualification. As acknowledged in the Club Instructor workbook some of the concepts in our curriculum are based on IPTPA.
PickleballEngland provides the coaching insurance for IPTPA Coaches listed on the IPTPA website (click button below). Since this is a dynamic list, we can’t list everyone on this page. We also don’t have visibility for which coaches have all the above evidence.
Other Qualifications
If you have another pickleball qualification (including IPTPA) and want to be listed on this page, we do require that you meet the guarantee on the top of the page. We have a low cost conversion option to be recognised by PbE. Email coaching@pickleballengland.org for more information.
