Jeff Barker, President of Rhino Sports of Northern California, is the Rhino dealer for the greater Sacramento Valley and Northern Nevada. Jeff has always had a passion for playing sports and was fortunate to grow up in a big family where sports were part of every day life. 

Jeff's involvement with Rhino Sports started in 1982, when his parents built a multi-game court for the 7 Barker kids, which Jeff describes as "one of the best things they ever did for us!"  While Jeff's brothers got the upper hand in basketball, he ultimately became "Street Champion" in Pickleball, and still loves to take on challenges from his Rhino Court customers today.

The experience of growing up with a game court in his backyard is what drew Jeff to this industry as an adult.  He believes all kids and families can benefit athletically and socially from playing on a Rhino Court, and enjoys designing courts that help create fun and rewarding memories that last a lifetime.  Just ask him about the first time he beat his Dad in a game of 1-on-1 basketball!

Jeff prides himself on providing his customers with smart court designs, the best products in the market, straight-forward pricing, and highly responsive, local service.  All construction related work on every Rhino project is done by licensed, insured an bonded contractors who have received many compliments on their work from lots of happy customers.  Together, Jeff's team treats every project as if it were going in their own, personal homes.
