What started as a shared love for racquet sports quickly turned into a vision to create something special for the community.
Friends and founders Josh Heller and Ted Dahmus combined decades of experience in sports, business, and hospitality to bring The Pickle Mill to life — a welcoming, one-court indoor pickleball suite designed for play, connection, and fun.
Built for year-round play, The Pickle Mill features state-of-the-art indoor courts, professional instruction, leagues, events, and a vibrant community of pickleball enthusiasts – all under one roof.
Whether you’re stepping onto the court for the first time or training to win your next tournament, you’ll find a supportive environment that’s all about fun, fitness, and friendship.
Josh and Ted are thrilled to open their doors and share their passion for pickleball with the community they call home.
