Many places across Montana offer pickleball classes or lessons.

Why?

It's a convenient sport that doesn't take much to enjoy.

A new facility opened this past winter with a year-round pickleball area.

New PIckleball Facility in Bozeman

This space is massive.

The Bozeman Real Estate Group reports The PIcklr will open its first Montana location in Four Corners this summer.

The new 36,000-square-foot facility will have twenty pickleball courts.

The Picklr is a massive franchise with over 270 locations in America.

They offer classes, competitions, and more for members and others looking to get involved in pickleball.

This move is genius.

Having the facility located in Four Corners will be accessible for many in the Gallatin Valley.

Plus, access to so many courts will help keep people flowing in and out of the facility.

The PIcklr doesn't have an official opening date yet, but it's shooting for June 2025.
