Climate-controlled courts and the friendliest doors in The Woodlands.
From your first paddle to your fifth tournament — there's something on the schedule for you.
Honest answers to the things people wonder before they walk in.
No. Walk in, book a court, or join Open Play without one. Memberships are optional perks for regulars who want priority booking and discounts.
Yes. Open Play sessions run throughout the day — drop in solo and we'll rotate you in with other players, no partner needed. Outside those windows, you'll need a court reservation or a group. Call ahead and we'll point you to the next start time.
Nope. Loaner paddles are free at the front desk and balls are always provided. Bring your own if you've got a favorite — otherwise we've got you covered.
Open Play drop-ins are $15. Court reservations run $40/hr. Private lessons start at $60/hr. Membership ($49+/mo) pays for itself if you play 2–3 times a week.
Sneakers (court shoes ideal, any closed-toe athletic shoe works) and clothes you'd wear to a casual workout. We're climate-controlled — no need to dress for the Texas heat.
Nope. The basics take 20 minutes to learn. Show up to Open Play and someone will walk you through serving, scoring, and the kitchen rule.

"This is pickleball.
Go play."
We were teenagers in someone's driveway, hitting a whiffle ball back and forth with beginner paddles. Nine hours straight. That was day one.
Years later we built ERA to be the place we wished we'd had on day one. Welcoming when you walk in. Competitive when you want it to be. Easygoing when you don't. A home court for everyone — beginners through tournament regulars.
Book a court. Drop in for open play. Bring your team.
