INDIANAPOLIS — A new pickleball club is coming to the north side of Indianapolis – with more in the works for the region.
The Picklr, which describes itself as "North America's fastest-growing indoor pickleball franchise," is set to host the grand opening of it's Keystone Crossing club this summer.
The club will be located at 3810 E. 82nd St., just east of North Keystone Avenue, and the company said it will be the first of more than five clubs to open in the greater Indianapolis area.
The 30,000 square foot club will have 10 indoor courts with "quality outdoor-style surfacing," as well as a shop and private event space.
“We are excited to be opening this location to foster a community of people across all pickleball levels and age groups,” Dave Gilreath and Ron Brock, local Indianapolis businessmen and managing partners of Pickle Indy, LLC., said in a statement. “As we explored our options for our pickleball franchise, The Picklr immediately stood out as offering players the premier indoor pickleball experience."
An exact date for the grand opening, as well as locations for the other Indianapolis-area locations, has not been shared.
“We are thrilled for Ron and Dave on their upcoming opening of their first Picklr in Indianapolis. It’s the first of many to come across Indiana where members can enjoy playing at any Picklr across the country with their membership benefits,” NFL veteran quarterback Drew Brees said in a statement. Brees is The Picklr's brand ambassador and area developer for Indiana, Ohio and Michigan.
More than 30 Picklr locations are expected to come to Indiana, Ohio and Michigan over the next three years, the company said.
