What I look for in an indoor pickleball facility is simple: will this place actually help me improve my game? Pickleball Backyard has absolutely delivered on that.I’ve met great coaches here, made good friends, and seen a clear, marked improvement in my skills. Coming from a full tennis background, this is where I truly learned the drops, dinks, and the more intricate swings that make pickleball unique.I’ve played their late-night open play (8–11pm) and even participated in a couple of tournaments. The programming is excellent, the leagues are well-run, and the overall vibe is friendly, supportive, and fun.If you’re looking for a place to grow your game and be part of a positive pickleball community, Pickleball Backyard is a fantastic choice.

This is an incredible facility and what better way to beat the heat in Arizona than to play Pickleball indoors.With multiple spacious courts there room for great match play.It's clean, well maintained and the staff is user-friendly.If you're in to Pickleball this is a must see.

Unfortunately, my friends and I had a very terrible experience here. We booked and paid for a private lesson and when we showed up, neither of our instructors were there. There was one person working the front desk and he had no idea what was going on. He ended up doing the lesson, but it was not what we paid for because we paid for one instructor each for a set of two of us. They tried to make it up and said “come back next weekend, the instructors will be here.” We called ahead to confirm and again they said no the instructors are not going to be here at that time, even though they had already told us they would be. Ownership did not want to speak to us and did not own up to the situation- they refunded us $15 of the $42 we spent for the lesson not really sure how that maths. Nonetheless had the owners stepped up and said we made an error. I might’ve not left a one star rating if I could leave zero stars I would. Ownership just did not handle the situation correctly at all and for that reason, I would never recommend this place nor will we ever come back. Terrible customer service. I would also like to add how the owner responded to a prior one star review see the image attached. Extremely condescending and rude!

It's a fun place to play but very small only 3 courts on open play which leaves you sitting around alot waiting for a court

6 indoor courts with good surface and lighting for rent. Took a 2 hour 4.5 level small group pickleball lesson with Sammy from Jordan Briones staff that was good and very intense.
