WELCOME TO YOUR SIX BRAND NEW DEDICATED INDOOR PICKLEBALL COURTS
A spacious, clean, premium space where you can play, mingle and enjoy the game on and off the court.
Enclosed courts
One or two gates per court provides easy entry and flow between courts for round robins. Each court is fully enclosed so balls don’t roll between courts, and so you’ll never have to pause your game to let another group pass to their court.
15,000 sq ft of total space
Allows for a healthy backcourt and sidelines on all 6 courts for your “around the post” shots, and, to handle those deep serves without running out of room.
Additional 7th Practice court
For warming up, drilling, coaching, and fun drilling games.
Take a breather!
Four seats on each court that fold into the wall.
Large area also allows for
Reception desk, pro shop, benches & cubbies, a space to stretch and hangout before & after you play, and spectator area for the Connecticut and Massachusetts “show courts” which will feature tournament finalists, pro exhibitions, the “NEP Club Top 8” of each skill level, and other entertainment.
…And More
- High ceiling (averages 30 feet) for all your lobbing needs.
- Pickleball Tutor Plus Ultra ball machine available for rent.
- Brand new ventilation, air conditioner, and heating system with 2 “big-ass” fans, temperature sensors, and dehumidifier to keep the space comfortable all-year-round (see below for more information on air quality).
- Garage door and double doors for optional fresh air in the summer.
- Brand new LED lighting designed for the pickleball space.
- No sunlight and optimal wall color for ball visibility.
The Novaplay playing surface, a high performance pickleball surface, installed by Maine Tennis and Track.

Rye Airfield – Now Airfield Place
- Over the 2nd half of 2021 and 2022, the building previously known as the Rye Airfield is being totally reimagined, rearchitected, and transformed into a space with multiple complementary businesses. The amazing team responsible for this transformation includes Ricci Construction, DeStefano Maugel Architects, and Maine Tennis & Track.
- Flight House Gym (click HERE to visit website) will feature state-of-the-art strength and cardio equipment and a wide variety of personalized group fitness classes.
- Bathrooms equipped with showers and day lockers will be available Q3 2022.
- Other attractions at Airfield Place will include Rye Physical Therapy, Yoga, a "Contrast Room" (featuring infrared and dry saunas, cold plunges, and more) Cafe and Lounge, Massage Therapy, and Co-Working.
- New England Pickleball Club will be open first, and the other businesses will open in the fall of 2022.



Computer Vision Technology
Over the course of 2022, cameras will be installed on New England Pickleball Club courts, and, proprietary computer vision technology that’s been developed specifically for pickleball over the past few years will be utilized at the club for teaching, entertainment, and other use cases.
Air Quality
- A DOAS (Dedicated Outdoor Air Systems) will be used to condition The Grail Longevity Zone, providing required air ventilation per ASHREA 62. This means that fresh air turnovers will meet all code requirements. Air ventilation and fresh air is used strongly in our industry to reduce the number of virus particles in the air. With bringing fresh outdoor air into a building it helps keep virus particles from concentrating inside.
- The DOAS units will also have MERV 13 filters. What is MERV? Minimum Efficiency Reporting Values, or MERVs, report a filter's ability to capture larger particles between 0.3 and 10 microns (µm).
- A new Bi-polar ionization system will also be installed at New England Pickleball Club.
How Does Bipolar Ionization Work?
BPI technology uses electric voltage to convert oxygen molecules to charged atoms that inactivate airborne contaminants. These negatively and positively charged atoms, called ions, are effective against viruses, bacteria, and mold.
As a bonus, they also neutralize volatile organic compounds, odors, and allergy-causing dander. Ions are naturally present in pristine air, but pollution and other human activity deplete them. Depending on the contaminant, BPI replaces these charged particles with non-volatile gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide.

BPIs inactivate airborne pathogens in two main ways. First, the charged particles surround the microbe and break it down. In the case of viruses, the ions induce a chemical reaction on the cell membrane surface. They envelop the COVID-19 virus and puncture the protein spikes on its membrane, neutralizing them.
Second, the ions attach to contaminants and enlarge them enough to be trapped by the HVAC system filters. The ionic load also makes some particles heavy enough to fall to surfaces where they can be cleaned away or further inactivated.
