The Pick a Ball Club Business Model

The Pick a Ball Club is not a new concept but a revolutionary one. The original business model was created in 2007 in Reno, Nevada, making it the first of its kind and initially designed for racquetball, wallyball, squash, handball, and other court sports. However, the sport of Pickleball was not part of the concept at the time, even though it has now become the fastest-growing sport in the country.

 Today there are thousands of outdoor Pickleball courts , the majority are outdoor tennis courts with portable Pickleball nets or one-use Pickleball courts. Pickleball's growth is limited by two significant factors: weather in states with cold and hot climates and the availability of indoor courts in facilities that generate sufficient ROI. 

The Pick a Ball Club offers a solution to these challenges. It includes nine different court sports and lifestyle activities that can be enjoyed on an 800-square-foot racquetball court. Sports include Pickleball, Racquetball, Basketball, Wallyball, Dodgeball, Paddleball, Handball, and Platform Tennis. Lifestyle activities with instructors and classes include aerobics, martial arts, and Tai Chi, to name a few. Additionally, there will be designated courts for Squash, basketball, and golf simulators, as well as putting greens. The Pick a Ball Club will be open to the public 24/7, 365 days a year, and will be a hybrid public/membership facility.

This concept offers developers a unique opportunity to build court sports facilities with a smaller footprint than traditional school gymnasiums and indoor tennis, basketball, and volleyball facilities. Hosting tournaments and events can also create affiliations with hotels. The four-wall glass stadium court can host live-streaming professional events, while amateur leagues and tournaments can benefit from local and national sponsors.

In conclusion, the Pick a Ball Club concept is incredibly promising and has the potential to revolutionize the Pickleball community. With its vast array of activities, unique design, and 24/7 availability, it will surely attract both professional and amateur players and create multiple revenue streams for developers.
