Jim O.Salisbury, MA
Dave Velardo is the real deal, Coach Dave and New England Pickleball club will take your pickleball to the next level.
Ted WelchYork, ME
Other places I have tried in the area have long waits for play time, games are only played until 9, then 4 off and 4 on, and all the lines on the ground for multiple sports can be confusing! I can’t wait for courts dedicated only to pickleball and without the wait time! This will fill a huge need for Seacoast pickleball players!
AnonymousSeacoast
Super excited for the opening of the New England Pickleball Club. Owner and pro, David Velardo has improved my play and will continue to do great things at this facility.

I am new to pickleball and think joining NEPB is a great opportunity to make new friends and meet players at my level during the open play sessions run by the club.
Elayna BennettPortsmouth, NH
I'm psyched to play pickleball indoors in the seacoast area- no rain, wind, cold, blinding sun or balls constantly rolling onto courts (each court has perimeter fence). And now I can reserve, and never wait for a court!
Greg BennettPortsmouth, NH
New England has needed more premier, dedicated pickleball courts and facilities as the demand is outpacing the supply. Rye New Hampshire is centrally located to reach the top-tier pickleball players from Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire and I'm excited to be able to have such amazing facilities to play with friends old and new!
