Instructor

David Ostlund


Dave began playing pickleball in 2020 as a way to get out and be active with his wife Megan and their three children during Covid. The addiction set in and he has been an almost-daily player ever since. Dave received his PPR coaching certificate in 2022. He is excited to bring his passion and knowledge of Pickleball to Hopkins Community Ed and help others fall in love with the game as well.
