Caden Nemoff first picked up a paddle in the Bay Area back in 2017, though his early dreams were on the baseball diamond. After COVID canceled his baseball season, he dove deeper into pickleball and discovered a passion not only for playing—but for teaching it too. In 2022, he moved to Arizona to manage a major facility and train alongside top-tier talent. By 2023, Caden made the leap to full-time pro, chasing his goal of becoming one of the best in the country. A true pickleball addict, he brings fire, focus, and nonstop drive to every match.
