Update the review -At list they're honest enough to refund me the money they over charged…read more I wish they didn't make me feel so bad and make me feel like I did something wrong. I feel like their behavior is dishonest misleading and indicating a lack of integrity. The first time I join for one month trial they had a new year promotion so I join Jan 06 and immediately they charge me extra , after calling the front desk few times , they said the promotion was over yesterday (they forgot to mention it when I signed in ) , I talked with Luz (one of the managers )and she agreed to return the extra fees and I asked to cancel the membership at the spot . I didn't see the refund and after calling again , they said it's a credit for next month , I said again , I don't want to be here another month , please cancel my membership, they said yes and now they charge me again . I needed to send them email just to confirm the call and they still charge me again I spend so many hour talking with them about the issue and then like nothing happens. I was there 3 times and for charge over $300 already . Such a rip off If u decide to join them , take a lawyer with u because they will nail you with secret charges all over the place . Very disappointing

Pulled up to The Hub Sports Club in Alameda and honestly... this place is solid…read more Came through with my guy Nate to check it out, get some runs in, and shoot a little content. Right away you can tell this place is well run. The energy is welcoming, the staff actually cares, and the community vibe is real -- competitive but still friendly. Pickleball-wise, it's stacked. 8 indoor courts that are clean, permanent, and play great, plus 7 outdoor courts if you want fresh air. Runs are organized, people know how to play, and they're always hosting tournaments and competitive events, which I really appreciate as someone who plays a lot. Outside of pickleball, the gym setup is legit. Full cardio and strength equipment, unlimited group classes like yoga, barre, and more. Locker rooms are clean, with showers, sauna, and steam room -- clutch after long sessions. Pro shop is fully stocked and the staff is always down to help with gear or questions without being pushy. Small thing but funny -- they even added a ping pong table, which kinda says everything about the vibe here. Functional, fun, and community-first. If you're in the Bay and serious about pickleball, fitness, or just want a spot that's run right with good people, The Hub Alameda is definitely worth checking out. I'll be back for sure.

Our tennis club played a match at Marin Tennis Club (MTC) last evening. The club's courts and…read moreviewing areas are really nice as was their staff. The food was very good.

Came here with some friends for a networking event…read more Good: - The coaches were excellent at teaching a group of 8 - everyone got a fair amount of time to play - The facility is huge and there's a lot in the space, including weights - Nice refrigerator with drinks stocked Bad: - The place only has 2 courts so it was hard to get play time once we got to free play time - Pricey! Overall this was a solid place to go for my first padel lesson and I felt like I knew how to go after just an hour and a half! Very well run class.

Not as picturesque or well-known as some of the other courts in SF (Presidio Wall, Golden Gate,…read moreetc..) but this neighborhood pickleball facility gets the job done! LS has six "permanent" courts (not tennis shared), with nice tight nets and permanent painted lines with a good clean surface. The outer fences are all covered with green screening to lessen wind activity and a permanent short screen divider fence with protective top guard separates the six courts into two sets of three courts. Benches are located at the sides of the courts and also at the ends. Be careful of the end benches on deep strokes or lobs. There is semi-paved road parking adjacent to the courts and a small parking lot at the top of the road. Restroom facilities are a bit of a walk from the courts. Overall - excellent, public, no-fee permanent pickleball courts.

I didn't realize that they moved to the Church Of 8 Wheels. Great business idea of the reuse of space but I felt like I was catfished. I booked reservations online they were $25 per person, in person it was $20... Its normally really windy and cold in SF and it felt nice being able to pickle indoors. Air circulation was not the best though. Improvement Opportunities for the Business: 1. Pickle Ball Lines & Roller Skating Lines were both white. The further courts had multiple white lines. It could be confusing at first. 2. Paddling Queue System was in the middle between courts. It was a distraction for me when I was playing because people were walking between courts to place down their paddles. 3. Dead spots on the ground... There were some dead spots on the ground because of all the rollerblading streaks. Also the ground was a bit slippery.

I've met so many great people, coaches, and really think my pickleball skills have improved by practicing here. It's a super fun way to meet people on top of getting an incredible workout! One of the owners, John, is very sweet and welcoming. He would watch when I play and give me pointers that have really helped improve my game! I've seen him do this for everyone and you can tell he's really passionate about helping others improve. Whether you're a pro at pickleball, or just learning, I highly recommend coming to DinkSF!
