We’re thrilled to introduce Chicago’s first fully autonomous pickleball facility — a new kind of experience designed for players who want flexibility, innovation, and community.




This groundbreaking space will also serve as the home of the SPF Training Academy, led by professional pickleball coaches Martin Stanchev and Emir Hamzic. Their team will offer elite pickleball training programs for both adults and kids, helping players of all levels elevate their game in a dynamic, supportive environment.
As part of our mission to serve the community, we’re proud to offer an exclusive “All Night” Pass for Chicago’s first responders, granting access to the facility during late-night and early-morning hours — perfect for those whose schedules don’t fit the standard day. Stay tuned for more updates, membership details, and opening dates — big things are coming soon!
