committed to:
The sport
Why pickleball?
Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the UK, and it’s easy to see why. It’s fun, social, easy to learn, and great for health and wellbeing. But until now, facilities have been limited. That’s where Dinks comes in — we’re creating state-of-the-art venues designed specifically for pickleball, giving the sport the dedicated home it deserves.
Our facilities
Each Dinks venue is designed with the player experience at its heart. Expect:
- 12 tournament-grade pickleball courts
- Café and bar for socialising off the court
- Comfortable workstation areas for remote working and relaxation
- Pro-shop and retail area with leading pickleball equipment
The Dinks difference
We’re not just building venues; we’re building communities. Every Dinks club is a hub for learning, socialising, and competing. Our events range from fun socials like Dinks & Drinks to regional tournaments that attract some of the best players in the country.
We’re passionate about growing the sport at every level — from introducing pickleball in schools to developing programmes for colleges and universities. We also offer tailored pathways for juniors, seniors, and adaptive players, ensuring everyone has the opportunity to play, progress, and feel part of the Dinks family.
Growing the Dinks brand
Dinks Pickleball is continuing to grow, bringing purpose-designed pickleball venues to more communities across the UK. As demand for the sport accelerates, we’re expanding thoughtfully — developing high-quality clubs that prioritise playability, community, and accessibility. Unlike general leisure centres or entertainment venues, Dinks is dedicated solely to pickleball, creating spaces where players of all levels can learn, compete, and belong.
