New Pickleball Courts Coming to the Cape May Area

Sixty years after the sport was first created, Pickleball's popularity has exploded in recent years to become one of the most popular fitness activities in the United States.

The sport's popularity has launched professional and amateur tournaments around the country, and the national indoor Pickleball club, The Picklr, has opened their first New Jersey location in 2025.

Each summer, former Eagles Player Conor Barwin hosts a charity pickleball tournament in Sea Isle City, and former NFL players come out to raise money while playing pickleball.

Sea Isle City has one of the newest sets of pickleball courts in South Jersey, with seven available on the island.  The next island south is Avalon, and thanks to recent upgrades, this Jersey Shore Town has 18 Pickleball courts available to the public.

Another South Jersey community is now investing in Pickleball Courts and giving locals a new place to play the game.

More Pickleball Courts Coming To The Cape May Area

After finishing construction of a new pickleball court project in Diamond Beach, New Jersey's southernmost township has approved the allocation of more money for Pickleball.

Lower Township Council has approved the funding to build six new pickleball courts. The plan is for the new courts to be located on Bayshore Road between the Lower Township Government Complex and the Senior Center.

These new courts will give Lower Township over ten pickleball courts available for locals and visitors to the Cape May area to use.  Overall, there are more than 30 Pickleball courts located just in Cape May County, New Jersey's southernmost county.
