We look forward to introducing our innovative pickleball approach and providing a space for players of all skill levels to enjoy the game.”

The 42,545-square-foot state-of-the-art facility will feature 12+ indoor CushionX courts designed for optimal player performance and comfort. The joint-friendly courts will boast excellent visibility and sightlines in a temperature-controlled environment. Additionally, the club plans to offer a fully stocked pro shop with high-quality equipment and apparel, along with advanced technology solutions for seamless court bookings and check-ins. A range of programs, lessons, and clinics will be offered that aim to nurture a vibrant community and foster connections among players of all skill levels.
