The Sydney scene

From rooftops to racquet clubs, Sydney plays everywhere.

Sydney's pickleball infrastructure has grown faster than anywhere else in Australia. In the past two years, dedicated venues have opened in Milperra (13 courts), Lane Cove (Galuwa), North Ryde (Ryde Multisport with 12 courts), Narrabeen (Evolve Pickleball, 8 outdoor courts), and the CBD itself — House of Pickle at Darling Harbour with Sydney skyline views.

Add the rooftop novelty at Broadway Pickleball (Level 4 of Broadway Shopping Centre), the premium feel of Bondi Racquet Club, and the competitive sessions at Sydney Racquet Club at Moore Park, and you have a city built for this sport.

The Pickleball Association of NSW lists 50+ affiliated venues across the state. Whether you're near the harbour, in the eastern suburbs, on the Northern Beaches, or out west, there's a court within 20 minutes.
