About The Smashing Pickle

The Smashing Pickle is a pickleball court in Elk Grove, California. It is listed at 3443 Laguna Blvd #130, Elk Grove, CA 95758, which places it among the local businesses of Elk Grove that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.
Pickleball has become the fastest growing racquet sport in the country, and many parks and clubs now share tennis courts with painted pickleball lines or have converted courts outright. Dedicated pickleball facilities, indoor and outdoor, rent courts by the hour and run open play sessions where players rotate in. Padel, played on an enclosed court with glass walls, is arriving in the Sun Belt and big cities; platform tennis (paddle) is a winter game on heated, elevated courts in the Northeast and Midwest; racquetball and squash live inside athletic clubs and YMCAs; badminton and table tennis have their own clubs in most metro areas. Equipment is cheap to rent or borrow for a first session at nearly all of them.
The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. Typical hours are 7 am–10 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (916) 744-5028. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, thesmashingpickle.com.

4 courts and its divided. Honestly it’s a good place to play. I say it’s not really beginner friendly but it also depends what time you go. We went there and advised the people around us that we don’t play much, some people were welcoming but others had some attitude. Overall i like the place just not the people.

Nice indoor club. Only four courts, but it’s not overly crowded (unless there’s heavy wind / rain, then more people come inside). 4 on, 4 off — so things move quickly enough. Ball machines available. Small selection of OK gear. Small fridge with some drinks for sale. The club is attached to the bowling alley and you can buy food and drinks through there and easily bring it back, if you want. The staff has always been polite and positive to interact with.

The staff are friendly and welcoming, but the honest truth is that the skill level here is high . If you are a 3 or below … players can be distant and clique-ish . A few were very nice to me (thanks Eric and Brenden) and a few wouldn’t make eye contact for fear of having to say hi or smile. I eventually got into a group with these super “mean girl” older ladies of Asian descent and they never said hullo and spoke to each other in mandarin (I think) . I just wanted to lose and gth out of that game. So if you have trauma at being the fat kid who was always last to get picked for a game … this place quickly brings back those memories. I’m gonna go back though because I want to get better and I guess I’m a sucker for punishment . And I love the game

Absolutely love The Smashing Pickle! The courts are well maintained, the atmosphere is fun and welcoming, and it’s a great place for players of all skill levels. The staff has always been friendly and helpful, and you can tell they’re working hard to build a great pickleball community. Whether you’re just getting started or you play regularly, this is a fantastic spot to get some games in. Looking forward to many more matches here!

I am disappointed at the customer service here. We brought a voucher to play pickleball here on a Sunday afternoon and the front desk receptionist did not accept it. We asked the day prior and were informed it was okay. We asked to talk to the supervisor who asked us to leave without hearing our story. Even after explaining, the manager said we still could not use the voucher. The explanation was the worker was not familiar to their policy and provided incorrect information. We were not disrespectful or rude. This is my first time here and I was interested in potentially becoming a member. Now, I know I will not be revisiting this location. We were the only group playing pickleball at this time. There were 3 open courts. Please feel free to reach back out to me if you have any questions.
