The Seidwinder Pickleball brand was born during Covid-19 in the summer of 2020. In between helping home-school five children, Andrew’s itch to formally spread the love of pickleball through this company became stronger everyday in quarantine. As of November 2020, Andrew is running the pickleball program at The Phoenician Resort, A Luxury Collection Resort, one of the only 5-Diamond resorts on the West Coast with permanent pickleball courts and athletic facilities run by one of the top management companies in the world: Troon (https://www.troon.com).
Seidwinder gives back to its community with donating some of his teaching fees to local charity supporting recently widowed fathers. Andrew not only loves to teach, but also enters the most prestigious tournaments in the Southwest. His most recent accomplishment is earning a gold medal at the 2020 35+ Arizona Open. Andrew is 1 of 20 certified instructors in Arizona reaching the highest rating “professional”. Seidwinder is a proud member of #TeamSelkirk #SelkirkAdvocate. If Andrew is playing in tournaments or teaching, you won’t find him without his Selkirk paddles, gear and accessories helping take his game to “another level” (www.selkirk.com).
