Pickleball Fever Sweeps Hatboro and Horsham: The pickleball craze is gaining momentum in Hatboro and Horsham, with plans for new facilities and court expansions dominating recent discussions.
In Hatboro, a new indoor pickleball facility is set to open this summer at 330 S. Warminster Road. Dubbed Dill Dinkers, the facility will feature 19 courts equipped with fences, a ball machine, pro shop, and an advanced reservation system catering to both members and visitors. It will offer clinics, private lessons, round-robin tournaments, and leagues, promising a dynamic space for pickleball enthusiasts of all levels.
Meanwhile, Horsham Township Council is considering a proposal for an indoor pickleball facility at 1250 Easton Road. The plan outlines five courts adjacent to the Dunkin Donuts store, offering scheduled court time, social events, lessons, and a flexible playing schedule. The facility aims to accommodate players of all ages and abilities, including provisions for wheelchair accessibility.
