The Pickle Juice Story
A Passion for Pickleball
The story of Pickle Juice starts with a 20-year friendship and a tennis partnership that began on the courts at Lehigh University. Co-founders Brad and Dave have been doubles partners, business collaborators, and great friends since their college days. While they never stopped playing tennis together, a few years ago they discovered something that would change everything: pickleball.
What started as curiosity quickly became an obsession. Brad and Dave found themselves on the courts every weekend, drawn in by the perfect blend of competition, camaraderie, and pure fun. They loved how pickleball delivered an incredible workout while being accessible to players of all skill levels. But what really hooked them was the community—the way strangers became friends between games, the laughter mixed with friendly rivalry, and the welcoming spirit that seemed unique to this sport.
As their passion grew, Brad and Dave saw an opportunity. While outdoor courts were plentiful, there was a clear need for a world-class indoor facility that matched the energy and joy of the game. They envisioned a space where the pickleball community could gather year-round—a place that combined state-of-the-art Pro-Cushion® courts with thoughtful design, natural light, and vibrant energy. A place where you could play a great match, then grab a fresh juice and connect with friends old and new.
That vision became Pickle Juice—where exercise, community, and fun come together under one roof.
