Bern has a new pickleball highlight: Four new pickleball courts have opened at the TIVOLI Center Worblaufen. This makes it the second-largest pickleball facility in Switzerland in the Bern region. For the growing Swiss pickleball community, this is another big step, and for us at Pro Pickleball GmbH, it's a special moment.
The BärnerBär reported on the opening and summed it up beautifully: Pickleball is hitting the zeitgeist. Quickly learned, dynamically played, and immediately accessible to children, adults, families, beginners, sports fans, and experienced racket sports players. It is precisely this mix that makes the sport so strong. (BärnerBär)
A real highlight for the Bern region
Curious onlookers, sports enthusiasts, and scene insiders came to Worblaufen for the opening of the four new courts. There was trying out, laughing, playing, and marveling. Demo paddles were tested, show matches of the Swiss pickleball elite were watched, and the new courts were immediately brought to life. (BärnerBär)
For Bern, this means: pickleball is no longer just on the horizon. Pickleball is now front and center. With four courts, strong partners, and a facility that works for both beginners and ambitious players.
PPB in the Kitchen: Visible on all four courts
For us, the facility is also special because Pro Pickleball GmbH was able to actively support its development. Our PPB logo is present in the kitchen of all four courts. Where delicate dinks are created, quick reactions count, and pickleball unfolds its own little magic.
This sponsorship is more than just a logo on the floor for us. It is a clear sign: We want to make pickleball visible in Switzerland, make it accessible, and advance it together with strong locations.
Built with quality: Pro Pickleball GmbH and Rebound Ace Europa
The new courts were realized in cooperation with Pro Pickleball GmbH and Rebound Ace Europa. A surfacing system was used that combines comfort, a pleasant playing feel, and high quality. The facility is complemented by JOOLA Pro nets and an on-site pickleball shop with suitable equipment. (BärnerBär)
The result: four beautiful courts that not only look good but also play really well. Homogeneous, high-quality, and ready for many hours full of dinks, drives, lobs, and kitchen duels.
Pickleball for almost everyone
What makes pickleball so special was also evident at the opening. Beginners were on the court just as much as experienced players. After just a few rallies, it was clear why this sport excites so many people: You get into it quickly, the rules are simple, and the fun factor is immediate. (BärnerBär)
This is precisely where the strength of pickleball lies. The sport connects generations, skill levels, and people. From the first cautious serve to the tactical kitchen battle, the journey is surprisingly short.
Worblaufen as a new pickleball hotspot
With the four new courts at the TIVOLI Center, Worblaufen is becoming an important new location for the Swiss pickleball landscape. The facility is a strong signal for the Bern region and another building block in the development of our sport.
We are delighted to be part of this project and sincerely congratulate the TIVOLI Center on its opening. Anyone who wants to try pickleball will now find the best conditions in Worblaufen. And if you ask us: these courts are definitely worth a visit.
Pickleball has arrived in Bern. And this is just the beginning. 🏓✨
