About Robert
For over ten years, Robert Goldstein has been the driving force behind the sports community at Huntington Lakes, a vibrant 55+ community in Delray Beach, Florida. What started as a passion for the game quickly became a mission to bring people together through sport.
Robert volunteers his time coaching residents in pickleball, paddle tennis, and regular tennis — welcoming beginners and experienced players alike. His patient teaching style and genuine enthusiasm have helped hundreds of community members discover the joy of racquet sports.
Beyond coaching, Robert organizes clinics, round-robins, and community tournaments that bring neighbors together and create lasting friendships. He’s built a culture of inclusivity, sportsmanship, and active living.
“The best part of coaching isn’t winning — it’s watching someone pick up a paddle for the first time and seeing the smile on their face when they hit that perfect shot.”
