YYC Pickleball - Calgary, Alberta

J

Checked out YYC Pickleball for open play. There’s 7 indoor courts. Courts are $28.00/33.00 per hour (non-prime/prime). Like how you can view court availability by day/week/month on the website. Paddle rentals are $5.00 or $8.00 for higher end.

Best bang for your buck is the open play drop-in punch card ($50.00 for 5, $160.00 for 22), otherwise it’s $15.00/person. Night hawk open play (5 courts) started as a free for all but eventually, one worker took charge and organized people by their level. Power nooner intermediate open play (2 courts) was better.

Facilities are decent (water refill station and couch sitting areas) but no real change room. Sound’s loud and echoey, difficult to hear score calling. Downside is the court layout; have to walk behind other people’s courts to get to the middle/far ones.

YYC Pickleball is great. So clean , so organized and the people there are so polite and friendly. My wife and I recently took a couple of lessons from their instructor, Arturo . He’s an amazing teacher . So patient, so knowledgeable and most of all , so helpful and kind. He would make things so simple and easy for us to follow, and take his time to help us get things right. Before each lesson , he would always ask which area we want to work on. After the lessons and during our rounds playing with our friends, whenever he has a chance, he would watch us play and give us advice to help us improve. We are so happy and thankful for everything he has done for us, and will definitely take more lessons from him in the future. Thanks YYC Pickleball and Arturo for making playing pickleball such a pleasant experience and helping us to improve so quickly in the game . Two thumbs up all the way 👍👍

Visited family over the weekend last week and I had to google up indoor pickle courts near the airport hotel we were staying at. This was the first recommended one. The location is very convenient especially if you are having a long layover and want to sweat it out, this would be your best bet to play pickleball and go back to the airport in time.

The facility is clean, new, and the staff were highly accommodating. The best thing about it was you can rent high end paddles during your play. You can also switch paddles anytime during your rental time. The online booking is simple and easy to navigate.

The first noticeable aspect are the courts and how close it is to the fences. You won't be able to catch a baseline bouncing serve without hitting the fence with your paddle. You can do an ernie but be careful of the wall and fence. The courts are probably meant for high control plays. There are net curtains for those high lobbed out balls. It will prevent balls from going to the next court but it does almost always find a small gap to get through the fences.

My family had a great experience and we will definitely come back to this facility. I've already brought friends to play for the first time and they were surprised to know that indoor pickleball exists.

A water station is available and the washrooms are comforting. There is a bench in the washroom for you to use when changing. The couches are comfortable. Also a neat detail that they have a paddle tray to put your paddles in for when you win or almost win.

Thank you to the YYC Pickleball staff for a good experience

Great facility, has 7 courts, sells pickleball equipment and snacks/drinks and has paddles to rent. I played here with a recreational league through Calgary Sport and Social Club. I’ve heard this facility has a more laid back atmosphere than others in the city. They also host events for learning and socializing. Layout is a little inconvenient since you have to walk through the front courts to get to the other ones but I’ve always found other players to be accommodating about this.
