"Eric, Patrick, and M.C. do an excellent job with the tennis clinics! They are very knowledgable and provide very good instruction and tips, with different topics each day. They bring a high level of energy and enthusiasm every day as well, and they take a real interest in helping you improve as a player."

"Two Sessions with Two Excellent Pros! My wife (4.0) and I (3.5) were at Palmetto earlier this month. We did two 90-minute sessions. One with Eric Wammock and one with Patrick Walker. Our session with Patrick was great! He got my wife to swing a with a little more power. She still has to practice it more to maintain consistency (as with any change) but it's needed as she sometimes place up at 4.5. The biggest takeaway I had is 11 more mph on my serve - no joke - I measured it on a speed clock when I got home. One little hitch correction on my swing made a world of difference to the power. Our session with Eric was also great! We did some drills and then he found an area we both needed to focus on... the smoothness and timing of our court movement - especially on balls that are farther away / harder to track down. We did a great drill that made us realize a little slower is OK. We could still get the ball and depending on shot selection get back into the play or go for a winner. Really helped us both. For me during a match I'm not tearing around the court as much now like it's do or die to get a ball to keep the play going (a little more control and a little better shot selection can work in these situations). I cannot say enough about this place and these two pros! We will definitely be back."

"I have had tennis lessons at Palmetto Dunes over the years. Patrick Walker, Head Tennis Professional, has been great to work with. At 80 and still 4.0, he assists me with valuable tips and drills to reinforce his instructions. I am grateful for two tips he gave me on increasing forehand speed and ball toss placement. On court professionalism, consistency in skill development and humor has been rewarding in my improved techniques. He is always on my do do list when visiting Hilton Head Island. You can’t lose!"

"This is an excellent pickleball facility. The instructors are friendly and good teachers. The round robins are well run and cater to all levels of play. This is an great place to learn the sport. Make sure to make reservations as the classes fill up."
