Opening in 2026, a 98,000-square-foot indoor sports facility is set to become the largest indoor pickleball centre in British Columbia.

Located adjacent to Tsawwassen Mills Shopping Centre, The Nest will offer elite coaching, immersive clinics, inclusive leagues, and social play sessions for athletes of all levels.

“We’re honoured to collaborate with Tsawwassen First Nation and Tsawwassen Mills in building a space where the athletic community can thrive,” said founding partner Lorne Loiselle. “With its state-of-the-art facilities and extensive programming, The Nest will redefine the pickleball and volleyball experience in Canada.”

Coaching, clinics, league and social play will be under the leadership of Steve Deakin, coach of the Las Vegas Night Owls of Major League Pickleball.

“Pickleball players are constantly limited by the lack of high-quality courts,” said Deakin. “The Nest will be a game-changer, providing a safe, well maintained space to play, rain or shine, day or night.”

Local players will be able to utilize The Nest year-round, with 14 accessible climate-controlled indoor courts, professional lighting, and 30-foot ceiling heights. There will also be competition-grade nets, court dividers, and outdoor surface courts.

“There are new pickleball courts being built across B.C. as they are very much needed,” said David Snell, president of Pickleball B.C. Association. “At many of these new pickleball facilities, players at all levels can benefit by developing their skills either for recreational play or more competitive endeavours. High-level players who compete at provincial and Canadian National tournaments can take advantage of these kinds of new facilities.”

As well, eight competition volleyball courts, with another four additional courts in the pickleball facility, will be available for big volleyball events.
