Scottsdale’s Next Mega Facility Set to Redefine the Sport
Scottsdale is about to become the epicenter of pickleball excellence with the announcement of PURE Pickleball & Padel, a sprawling 50-court facility slated to open in 2026. This 180,000-square-foot complex will feature 48 state-of-the-art pickleball courts and two padel courts, offering players a world-class venue to enjoy the sport year-round. Strategically located near Scottsdale’s entertainment hotspots, PURE aims to cater to everyone—from casual enthusiasts to professional competitors. With amenities like after-school programs, rooftop bars, and championship-level courts, this facility promises to be much more than a place to play—it’s poised to become a lifestyle hub.
The brainchild of co-founders Kevin J. Berk and Brett Warner, PURE is designed to meet the exploding demand for pickleball in Arizona, where wait times for courts are common. The facility will also address accessibility challenges by offering lessons, childcare, and programs tailored to all ages and skill levels. Beyond the courts, the co-founders plan to connect the community with social spaces, business event venues, and initiatives to engage younger players. PURE’s innovative vision includes rolling out additional courts for major events and hosting tournaments in a 5,000-person championship venue. With these features, PURE is setting a new standard for private pickleball facilities.
By blending high-tech design with a focus on inclusivity and community, PURE Pickleball & Padel reflects the vibrant spirit of Scottsdale. Its commitment to player safety and comfort—through cushioned courts, broadcast-quality lighting, and healthy lifestyle options—ensures an unparalleled experience. For pickleball enthusiasts, PURE isn’t just a facility; it’s the future of the sport. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a newcomer, PURE invites you to join a community where competition and camaraderie thrive. The countdown to 2026 has begun, and with it, the promise of a new chapter in pickleball history.
