The Pickle Grounds
“Two courts in separate units on the 8th floor of First Group Centre, run by a coaching-led team and priced at a flat HK$160 an hour around the clock, the cheapest per-court rate in Kowloon Bay. Ball machines, demo paddles from entry level to pro, and a class ladder from trial sessions to seniors' groups. Part of the same building that houses PICKLE.READY and Pickledise, so it is easy to compare on foot. A second, much larger Kowloon Bay site with six indoor courts, a spectator stand and a lounge is in fit-out, with the floor plan published on 7 October 2026 and the address still to be announced.”

Pickledise's second venue takes the whole top floor of First Group Centre: four courts side by side under a high ceiling, floor-to-ceiling windows along one wall and padded walls behind the baselines. It is the widest private venue in Kowloon East, which makes it the natural pick for a group booking or a four-court social. Rates match the Tsuen Wan original, with a HK$250 weekday daytime band and a HK$330 late shoulder until 1am.
