Lucas Coutinho

Originally from Recife, Brazil, Lucas played Division I tennis for four years at the University of Idaho. After graduating and moving to Boise, he picked up a paddle at a local park and fell in love with pickleball. The game restored the high-level competition he missed and connected him with an amazing local community. Lucas now competes on professional tournaments across the region and nationwide, driven by continuous growth and a passion for expanding the sport in his community.
