Pickleball Frenzy Fuels Rapid Growth of Indoor Clubs Across America
-
The indoor pickleball club market is booming rapidly across the US, with operators repurposing vacant retail spaces like abandoned malls and big box stores.
-
Business models vary widely, from membership-only clubs to restaurants with pickleball courts to hybrid setups, with no consensus yet on the best approach.
-
Major franchise chains like The Picklr, Ace Pickleball Club, and Pickleball Kingdom are expanding aggressively through selling hundreds of franchises.
-
Facilities must balance considerations like court construction, sound proofing, food offerings, and additional amenities when building out clubs.
-
It's unclear if and when the market may become oversaturated, as current demand remains exceptionally high across most US geographies.
