Daryl Wyatt
Daryl Wyatt is a former elite ATP Tour tennis professional turned pickleball enthusiast and entrepreneur. After decades of coaching tennis at all levels, Daryl transitioned into facility ownership in 2022, purchasing a small three-court club named SW19 (the postal code for Wimbledon). Initially a tennis-only space, the club soon evolved into a dedicated pickleball venue as Daryl embraced the sport’s rapid rise and its ability to bring people of all backgrounds into recreational and competitive play.
Today, Daryl owns and operates pickleball facilities in Kansas City and Australia, helping to grow the game globally. His coaching philosophy, rooted in years of tennis experience, continues to thrive on the pickleball court, where he develops unique programs that inspire athletes of all abilities.
An accomplished competitor in his own right, Daryl plays as a top-ranked Champion Pro (age 50+) and currently holds the #6 spot in the APP world rankings. He also serves as the top male player and co-owner of the Kansas City Stingers in the National Pickleball League (NPL).
Daryl’s passion for teaching, competing, and building community defines his work—and his mission remains clear: to inspire more people to pick up a paddle and find joy in the game.
