Would I come back?

Pickleball Pickup

Nguyen Trai, District 1 · 9am

Right in District 1, so very central, though the small roads around it make arriving by car a little slow.

05

Big Balls Social

Bảo Hưng Pickleball Station, District 2 · 140k for 3 hours

A huge new venue with around 15 courts. 11 games, barely any waiting, properly competitive points. Matchmaking wasn't perfect.

06

Pickleball Tổ Ấm

Railway Pickleball, 1 Nguyễn Thông, District 3 · 100k, about 3 hours

One of my favourite vibes so far. Genuinely friendly hosts and some of the best matchmaking I've tried. 10 games for about 100k with free fruit, eggs and water. Would I come back? Definitely. The main downside is the morning heat.

07

YND Social

Vias, District 7 · 2 to 6pm, 110k

A massive venue with 30+ courts and big fans that keep it cool. Very local, friendly, mixed levels, and free bananas and eggs. 12 games for 110k. The paddle-queue rotation means some waiting. Would I come back? Yes, sometimes.

One-to-one coaching, arranged by me.
