Two ways to book the courts.

Run it yourself, or have one of our coaches take the group through the rules and the drills. Either way you pick how many courts you want and how long you want them, then add the bar and the BBQ if you need them.

Court hire

You run the show. We hand over the courts, the paddles and the balls.

$60per hour, per court

Paddles and balls included. Maximum of 6 players per court.

When you can book

Any day, if the courts are free.

Picking a time

Sessions run any day or evening, subject to availability. Tell us roughly when suits and we'll tell you what's open.

Other ways to book

If you want the whole place to yourselves, full venue hire may work out better.

For brand activations and shoots, brand and event hire runs on its own pricing.

Before you ask

Things people ask about.

Does everyone have to know how to play?

No. Pickleball takes a few minutes to get the basics and roughly the same again before someone starts taking it far too seriously. Book coach and court and we'll run the whole thing.

How many courts do we need?

Six players per court is a strict maximum, so a group of 24 needs four courts. Tell us your numbers on the form and we'll suggest a setup.

Can we bring our own drinks?

The centre is fully licensed, so every drink comes from our bar. No BYO.

Can we bring our own food, or a caterer?

Outside catering is welcome, and we can suggest local suppliers if that's helpful. If you'd rather cook on site, the industrial BBQ is $100 for the whole event, however long you're here. Tick it on the booking form and we'll sort the rest out with you.

Is there somewhere to do speeches or a presentation?

Yes. Our 52sqm multi-purpose studio has a large screen and projector, a full-length wall mirror and doors opening straight onto the courts. Groups use it for speeches, awards, slideshows and a bit of quiet away from the courts.

It isn't included with court hire, but you can add it to either package. Just let us know when you book.

What if it turns into a scorcher, or buckets down?

Melbourne has been known to do both before lunch. There are undercover and shaded areas to duck into either way. If the temperature climbs too high, or the rain gets heavy enough to make the courts unplayable, we'll reschedule your booking at no charge. See our weather policy for the details. If you want indoor space as well, full venue hire includes it.

Can we book the whole centre?

Yes. That's full venue hire, which closes the place to everyone but your guests. It covers every tennis and pickleball court, the licensed bar, our 52sqm studio with screen and projector, indoor and shaded areas, and the staff to run your event.
