Located in the heart of Southeast Texas, just a short drive from the iconic NASA Space Center and the vibrant museum district of Houston, Pickleball Country Club (PBCC) stands as a premier destination for players seeking refuge from the punishing heat of Texas. What makes this club unique is its leadership: founded by luxury watch entrepreneur Hal Martin and biomechanics expert Dr. Rommie Maxey, the facility blends high-end hospitality with scientific precision in player development. While the local Houston climate is defined by its humid, subtropical summers, PBCC offers a fully climate-controlled environment, making it a year-round haven. The best times to visit are late autumn and early spring, and you can explore the city’s world-class culinary scene between matches.
Pickleball Country Club has quickly carved out a prestigious reputation since its establishment, serving as a hub for both the local community and the professional circuit as a host for the 2025 Texas Amateur Pickleball Championships. As the home base for the NPL Houston Hammers, the facility boasts a professional heritage that is rare for independent clubs. The on-site Pro Shop is a curated retail experience where players can test top-tier paddles and gear, often guided by the expertise of the facility’s elite coaching staff. This club is open from 7:00 AM until as late as midnight on weekends, the staff and resident pros—including world medalist Bobbie Phoumy—maintain a flexible and welcoming schedule for visiting players.
The club distinguishes its programming by offering a sophisticated balance: structured leagues provide a consistent competitive outlet, while their "Next Level" clinics focus on technical mastery for everyone from true beginners to master-level 5.0 players. This commitment to growth is mirrored in the local community’s reputation; reviews frequently highlight the facility’s "electric atmosphere" and the high-quality, air-conditioned courts that make even the most intense summer rallies enjoyable. Whether you are a local regular or a traveling enthusiast, the community at PBCC is known for its "open-door" spirit, often hosting social mixers and "Labor Day Fundays" that bridge the gap between recreational play and the pro-style experience.
