Now serving open. That’s right, the long-awaited arrival of Lexington’s first pickleball-specific venue is officially here.

Say hello to Pickleball Paddock, featuring nine bookable courts for players of all levels. “You will not find a more top-of-the-line facility for the pickleball player experience,” said part-owner Travis Redmon. “We have cushioned courts, so they are a little bit easier on the joints. Top-of-the-line lighting, the [Big Ass] fans, and the site lines — you can’t really beat it as far as visibility.”

Members + non-members are welcome to join the pickleball craze by reserving courts, joining clinics, or taking lessons. Membership perks include:

  • Booking up to seven days in advance
  • $6 half-off court rentals + open play
  • Access to members-only leagues, tournaments, and events
  • Discounted private lessons + clinics and 10% off in the prop shop

You can see the weekly schedule + hours online.
