Patrick Huls
(Tennis Professional)
Native to Central California, I grew up in Fresno constantly finding myself on a tennis court with my family. After having a successful high school career, I spent one year with the Fresno City College team before soon becoming a teaching professional. The next 4 years were spent at private clubs working with juniors and adults of all levels. In 2017 I received my USPTA Professional status and continued honing my skills as an instructor. My court time was spent alongside future Division I scholarship athletes and national level players all while competing in USTA leagues reaching the national levels as a competitor.
In January of 2019 I joined the Fresno State University Women’s Tennis team as an assistant coach before spending the next two seasons as the Head Coach of the Men’s Tennis program at Fresno City College. In the Fall of 2021 I was hired as the assistant coach for both the Men’s and Women’s program at Fresno Pacific University before finally deciding to move and call San Diego my new home. I look forward to helping players develop their games, whether that be a junior player with aspirations of a college career, or a local USTA player looking to clean up their game before the upcoming season.
