Über diesen Titel

CourtSide is the podcast about the business side of racquet sports. Tennis, pickleball, padel, squash. If you own a facility, run programs, coach players, or operate in this industry, this show is for you. Host Evan Dechtman sits down with facility owners, directors of racquets, head pros, club managers, and operators across the country for honest conversations about what it actually takes to run a racquet sports business. How to fill courts. How to keep members. How to build programs from scratch. How to hire good coaches and keep them. The stuff that happens off the court that determines whether the stuff on the court survives. No scripts. No highlight reels. Just two people talking about what they've built, what's working, what's not, and where they think this whole thing is going. New episodes every two weeks. Evan is the founder of TopSpin Digital, a marketing agency built from the ground up for racquet sports, and HEARD Digital Marketing, its parent company. 25+ years of digital marketing for local businesses. 350+ clients. TopSpin exists because racquet sports businesses had real momentum and almost no marketing infrastructure behind it. Want to be a guest?

  • CourtSide Ep. 1: The Business of Running Racquets at a Private Club, with Andy Zodin
    May 15 2026
    Most people in racquet sports know Andy Zodin's voice from the radio. Fewer know what he actually does for a living. For the last 15 years, Andy has been Director of Racquet Sports at Columbine Country Club in Denver, one of the top private clubs in the Intermountain region. He's been a teaching pro since 1984, an RSPA Elite Pro, and served five years as USPTA Intermountain President. He also hosts KickServeRadio.com on the Tennis Channel Podcast Network with Mats Wilander and Jonny Levine. In this conversation, we get into the parts of the job nobody puts on a podcast: how a director of racquets actually spends a Tuesday, the conversations with ownership that happen on repeat, staffing teaching pros in 2026, how private clubs are handling the pickleball question, and what he'd do differently building a program from zero today. If you run a facility, lead a program, or coach for a living, this one's for you. Guest: Andy Zodin, Director of Racquet Sports, Columbine Country Club. Host of KickServeRadio.com. CourtSide is hosted by Evan Dechtman, founder of TopSpin Digital. New episodes every 2-3 weeks. Show notes: https://topspindigital.co/courtside Be a guest: https://topspindigital.co/courtside/book
