The official opening of the brand new pickleball courts was held this weekend at the W.E.R. Joell Tennis Stadium.

A Government spokesperson previously said, “Pickleball has been rapidly gaining popularity in Bermuda over the past few years, and the new courts are a testament to the growing demand for this exciting sport.

“The new courts are designed to provide a state-of-the-art facility for players of all skill levels and ages to enjoy. The new courts at the W.E.R. Joell Tennis Stadium will make it easy for everyone to access and enjoy the game. The new facility features four regular-sized courts, with ample space between courts to ensure player safety and comfort.

“The new courts are made of high-quality materials to provide optimal playing conditions and to withstand the Bermuda climate.”

“We are thrilled to offer this new facility to our community and visitors,” said the Minister of Youth, Culture and Sport Owen Darrell. “Pickleball is a fun and accessible sport that can be enjoyed by all ages, and we look forward to seeing the courts used by players of all levels. We invite everyone to come out and celebrate the grand opening with us.”

Jekon Edness, Senior Sports Development Officer adds, “The new pickleball courts in Bermuda are a valuable addition to the island’s sports facilities and will undoubtedly attract both locals and tourists alike. The sport’s growth in popularity is sure to continue, and these new courts will help ensure that pickleball remains a beloved pas=me for years to come.”

“The Pickleball Association of Bermuda, which has been wildly active as a response to the rapid uptake of the sport here, are striving to make participation in pickleball a shining example of the positive impact sports can have on individuals and communities,” says Matt Dragonetti, President. “We appreciate the government’s investment in these new public courts and anticipate that they will be used extensively.”
