MONMOUTH COUNTY, NJ — New indoor pickleball clubs are coming to Monmouth County.

Dill Dinkers, a growing indoor pickleball club franchise, recently announced that it will develop 20 new club locations throughout Monmouth, Middlesex, and Union counties.

Leading the brand’s expansion is a local family ownership group with deep roots throughout New Jersey. Since the franchise only recently signed its development deal, no specific locations for the Monmouth County clubs have been selected yet.

“Our team is looking forward to bringing a premier pickleball experience in a family environment with Dill Dinkers,” said Stephen Hafner, a representative from the regional development group. “Our goal is to create a network of premier pickleball clubs across New Jersey, where families and friends can come together in a safe, welcoming environment.”

At Dill Dinkers, guests can enjoy services such as open play, a ball machine, lessons, clinics, tournaments, leagues and more.

Prices range depending on what you come to the club for, and club membership includes benefits such as half-price court fees and the ability to book courts five days before visitors and non-members can.

“At Dill Dinkers, our dedicated facilities are a pickleball haven for players of all levels,” officials said. “Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a beginner looking to dive into pickleball, we are here to spread the joy and elevate your pickleball experience to new heights!”

As regional developers lead Dill Dinkers’ growth throughout New Jersey, the group is seeking local franchise owner candidates for each pickleball club.

Currently, the brand has five company-owned locations in Maryland and Virginia, and has since signed developers in Texas, Washington D.C., North Carolina, Connecticut, South Carolina, Arizona, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, Georgia, Florida and Pennsylvania.

By year-end, Dill Dinkers expects to have at least 30 opened locations and more than 500 in development.

"We started Dill Dinkers because of our unwavering passion for the sport and the community it has provided us,” Co-Founder and CEO Will Richards said. “As a former Dominos multi-unit franchisee, it was crucial for us to build a strong network of support ahead of our franchising launch, and now with 22 regional developers on board, we are thrilled to welcome these experienced individuals, who are just as passionate about spreading the joy of pickleball.”

“We look forward to seeing how the team extends our name in New Jersey and how other entrepreneurs can benefit from a premier indoor pickleball offering and a strong network of support,” Richards continued.
