Indoor Pickleball Franchises Expand Courts in Tacoma, Federal Way, Fort Myers

Pickleball continues to experience rapid growth across the United States, with several new facilities and leagues launching to accommodate increasing demand. The Picklr franchise is expanding nationally, including new large indoor locations in Tacoma and Federal Way, Washington, featuring multiple courts, pro shops, and inclusive memberships usable nationwide. Similarly, Ace Pickleball Club is opening a 34,000-square-foot indoor center in Fort Myers, Florida, as part of a plan to add 30 locations nationwide, reflecting the sport's $1.5 billion market value and projected growth of 11.3% by 2028. Local communities are also fostering pickleball through events and leagues, such as the LOV Pickleball Tournament in Mobile, Alabama, which raises funds for youth programs, and the upcoming Palm Bay Summer Adult Pickleball League in Florida, open to players of all skill levels. In the UK, the sport's popularity is rising among older adults due to its low-impact nature, promoting health and social engagement. These developments highlight pickleball's expanding appeal as a sport suitable for a wide range of ages and abilities.
