Pickleball Courts

Welcome to Hamburg Pickleball! If you are new to the sport, or our facility, you are in the right place!
Two of the three existing courts were finished in 2022 with funding from the Township as well as the Hamburg Seniors, with the third made possible in 2023 with a generous donation from the Atwood Family. Our facility includes ample parking, seating areas, a picnic pavilion, and portable toilet. It is near the Hamburg Senior/Community Center which is an active community of residents 55 and older. You can find more information about their programs and services here: https://www.hamburg.mi.us/resident/seniors_senior_community_center/index.php.
The Pickleball Courts are limited to use by the Senior/Community Center, Monday - Friday, 9 am to 4 pm, after which it is available to the Hamburg residents. We ask that you adhere to our Pickleball Court Rules, and Code of Ethics which you can find below.
