Meet Steven and Lindsay Michaud

Hi, we’re Steven and Lindsay Michaud — the husband-and-wife team behind Pickleball Parents. We’re longtime paddle sport enthusiasts, community supporters, and most importantly, proud pickleball parents.

A Love for the Game

Steven discovered pickleball in 2015 on the courts of Whitefish, Montana. With a background in tennis, racquetball, and ping pong, he instantly connected with the sport’s energy and inclusivity.

What started as a hobby quickly turned into a passion — and eventually, a mission to serve the growing pickleball community.

Building Pickleball Parents

Together, we founded Pickleball Parents as a family-run business with a shared goal:
to make pickleball more accessible, family-friendly, and fun for everyone.

Whether you need demo paddles, expert gear advice, or just want help finding the perfect fit — we’re here to take the guesswork out of the game.
We ship nationwide with affordable prices and fast delivery you can count on.

Family First, Always

In 2021, our lives changed forever with the birth of our first child.
One of our most cherished photos is of our newborn resting on a Selkirk paddle — a moment that became the heart of Pickleball Parents:
a love for play, family connection, and legacy through sport.

Passion + Professionalism

Steven is proud to be Montana’s first IPTPA-certified Pickleball Instructor and was recently nominated for the 3rd Shot Sports Pickleball Hero Award.

We lead local clinics, support school programs, and help players of all levels across the Flathead Valley and beyond.
