SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — A venue promising to be Arizona's largest pickleball facility is under development near Talking Stick Resort in Scottsdale.
PURE Pickleball has recently announced plans to co-develop an 11-acre venue that will be home to several indoor and outdoor pickleball courts.
Estimated to open in the fall of 2024, the venue will include a championship court with a 500-seat stadium wrapped around it and production capabilities to allow for televised pickleball matches.
“Pickleball is more than just a game; it’s a national phenomenon with 48 million people projected to play pickleball this year,” said developer Kevin J. Berk. “PURE Pickleball will cement Scottsdale, Arizona as the best place to learn, play, and spectate this amazing sport.”
Other amenities planned for the facility include two rooftop courts, a full gym, member clubhouse, and child care facility.
