Amanda and I wanted to look into playing Pickleball. We looked online for an indoor location and…read moresome place to learn to play. True Pickleball Club has a website that is easy to schedule a court, pretty inexpensive at $45 an hour or $10 per person for Open play. The location is beautiful with 5 regular courts and 1 championship court. Cabanas at each court for your stuff and a lounge with locker rooms to change while you wait. A bar with lounge also. The staff has been amazing. Brian checked us in, we told him we were very new to the sport and he was extremely helpful. So much so, he gave us a lesson and played with us. We have been back 4 times since and may join a league.

I attended a novice open play which was a disaster. The employees gave no guidance on how the set up worked. I'm still not sure how it was supposed to work. There was a lot of drama with people who wanted to play certain people and others who clearly were not beginners slamming the ball. No thanks. I don't recommend it.

Taking the course with Maura spared me from likely embarrassment. She explained the rules clearly and demonstrated serving techniques. She's very patient. She told me not to rush my serve. The class had just enough time to play a short game. The facilities are nice. I borrowed a pickleball racket for free. I'll need more practice. There are sessions where beginners can play. Bottom line is that it was quite fun. Thanks to Maura and Picklers Pickleball Club for getting me started.

I've patronized a few Play It Again Sports in two other areas of the country, and I can say without…read morereservation this is both the biggest/best stocked store I've been in, and they had the best staff of any PIAS I've been to. They are loaded for bear right now with winter stock - vast arrays of skates, hockey gear, skis, snowboards, and accessories. They tend at this location to stock ONLY what is demanded for the season, so if you're selling something from an off-season or are looking for a bargain tennis racket in November, you will be disappointed. They do full-season rentals on equipment, which seems to me like a great way to wade into a new sport. Their buyback scheme is as follows: when you bring a used item in, they will price it. If you leave it on consignment to sell, you will get 50% of the price, when it sells. If you want to take trade-in credit right away, you get 40% of the value. If you want to get cash on the nose right away, you get 30% of the value. I looked at the range of conditions and availability for skates (which we were shopping for today) and the price range seemed quite decent for what they had. I waited for our skates to be sharpened, and observed them helping some skiing and snowboarding customers and handling a buy-back transaction, and they seemed very thorough, professional, and knowledgeable. The used prices aren't ultrabargains, but it's difficult to really find a specialty store that deals with used goods. You have your thrift stores, used car dealers, and other than that you're left with Craigslist and garage sales for the most part. So I think this is a pretty good niche, and for the ever-growing and changing-of-interest kids, a great great resource. They'll have to wow me on repeat visits for me to get up to the lofty five stars, but a promising four stars for now.

I love how informative the staff are. Donovan loves "Coach Matt" who has been working with him ever since my lil guy started skating. Very family friendly place not gigantic like the Clifton park arena very nice great lessons. Even though my boy isn't great at skating as he has trouble with stopping and turning. I have all the confidence that it will come in time. Highly recommend the Hockey Hut for kids who just want to learn to skate, learn to figure skate and learn to play hockey!
