Opens the First Dedicated Indoor Pickleball Facility
and the Pickleball Museum in Kent, WA
P
ickleball Station is a recently opened public pickleball
facility in Kent, WA, that is rapidly changing the
pickleball landscape in the Puget Sound region. Providing
courts, lessons, a pro shop and Pickleball Museum,
Pickleball Station has created a much-needed pickleball
home for the Pacific Northwest’s thousands of pickleball
enthusiasts. Finally, pickleball players in the Seattle-
Tacoma area have a place where they can play year-round
on state-of-the-art dedicated courts designed specifically
for pickleball.
Pickleball Station was launched to fill the growing need
for quality pickleball courts accessible year-round. The
18,000-square-foot facility features four indoor courts, a
large pro shop, and Pickleball Museum, and shares space
with its sister company, Pickleball Central. The courts
are covered with a premium outdoor surface and open
for pickleball play 15 hours a day, every day. Players can

evenings a week, with leagues tailored for each level of
player, and will be offering summer camps and after-school
pickleball classes for youth. In addition, Pickleball Station
provides groups a unique facility for hosting parties,
corporate events and team-building activities.

round access to courts, obtain quality instruction, and shop
