This is a rather subpar pickleball facility. I wanted to check it out because it looks glitzy and glamorous from the outside but I was pretty disappointed with my experience.
I will say the concept of LED courts was cool. They could change from tennis courts to pickleball courts pretty quickly. However, one of the courts had a malfunction and they had to measure and tape lines onto the ground which wasn't a good first impression. There's not a ton of space either to play freely- often times my paddle would hit the wall while serving and you cant play aggressively without running into the barriers. The courts are also not real hard courts and have some soft sports that cause the ball to bounce weirdly.
I was extremely disappointed by the effort that went into organizing the tournament that I signed up for. We "unofficially" came in second place but there were no medals and not even any formal announcement of who came in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Why even call it a tournament at that point? They told me it was going to be a DUPR event where the games would be logged but that didn't happen either. It was frustrating to have paid for something that was falsely advertised.
Overall, I think this is a good place if you're just looking for casual fun social play but definitely not for competitive play.

Amazing facilities and faculty. My three kids have been taking lessons and going to movie night for over two years. I see visible improvement and increased confidence and understanding of the game of tennis. My husband and I also take classes, point play and ball machine lessons. Great staff from front desk (Simone and Ryan =)) to coaches (Greg, Dylan, Ryan, Chris!). Very clean, warm and spacious bleachers to view and wait while kids are talking lessons.

I’ve started playing both pickleball and tennis here and the way these folks make both sports so accessible to everyone is really a testament to the system and the coaches running said system at Court 16! Dylan has helped take my pickleball game to new levels. He and the rest of the coaches have also done a phenomenal job at teaching me how to play tennis from the very basics on up. It’s a warm and welcoming experience from the second you walk into the facility. Highly recommend!

This is one of the most amazing places ! I bring my 4 year old for the junior classes and Coach Chris and Coach Abby have been so wonderful patient and know what they’re going and they cater to each child. Each class is only 4 kids so each child gets personalized attention.
Everyone here is just so amazing. And Laurie Diaz, the senior guest services associate - is just one of those people that you will meet once in a lifetime. She really goes above and beyond and so kind and wonderful.

Been taking beginner lessons here for about a month. Coach Leaf is so encouraging and extremely attentive to each student’s individual needs during sessions. He takes the time to slow down and correct your form and play which I really appreciate, especially being completely new to tennis. I’m always looking forward to the next lesson with him!
