Where to play pickleball in Chiang Mai in 2026: A complete court-by-court guide

I’ve been playing pickleball in Chiang Mai for three years. I’ve played at almost every court in the city. So I decided to put together a complete review based on my own experience. None of these are paid reviews. I hope this helps anyone coming to Chiang Mai to play pickleball.

Chiang Mai Pickleball Club (Hai Ya Rd)

Chiang Mai Pickleball Club is the most affordable place to play pickleball in the city.

This is where Chiang Mai’s pickleball story began. Before dedicated courts existed, a group of players turned a basketball court into a place to play. More people gradually joined and discovered pickleball here—including me.

That same spirit remains today. The club keeps fees low and brings together players of different ages, nationalities, and skill levels. To me, this is pickleball in its purest form.

First time playing in Chiang Mai? I recommend this as your first stop!

Courts: 3 outdoor courts

Location: Chiang Mai Pickleball Club

Price: THB 20 (USD 0.60) per person for open play. Paddle rental is also THB 20 (USD 0.60) per paddle.

Open play: Every morning from 8 AM to 12 PM. No reservation is needed—just show up and play. Courts cannot be privately booked.

Notice: When it gets busy, the wait between games can be a little long. But don’t worry too much—time moves more slowly in Chiang Mai. I suggest coming early, as it gets quite hot around noon.

This is probably the most beautiful pickleball venue in Chiang Mai, surrounded by lush greenery.

There’s also a cafe right beside the courts, making it a great place to play and grab a coffee in between. The courts use professional pickleball flooring. The online booking is smooth and easy.

BYC Pickleball & More Chiang Mai

BYC sits at the foot of Doi Saket (Mount Saket), away from city noise.

In 2022, former university teacher Kru Mod built it out of her love for the sport. Her teaching background still shapes BYC today, from coaching and DUPR events to a program introducing pickleball to local children.

If you want to escape the city, learn pickleball in nature, BYC is worth a visit.

Courts: 3 indoor courts

Location: BYC Pickleball & More Chiang Mai

Price: THB 140 (USD 4) / hour, with access to all three courts

All Time Pickleball Indoor Court

The completely indoor setting makes it a court to enjoy regardless of weather.

It’s a blue-and-white venue with professional pickleball flooring. Plenty of light and enough room around the court boundaries. There’s also a swimming pool and tennis courts nearby.

Courts: 3 indoor courts

Location: All Time Pickleball Indoor Court

Notice: Like many local indoor courts, it can get a little hot and stuffy. Regularly fully booked, so I suggest reserving your court in advance.

An indoor venue with an American retro look. Professional flooring and spacious, well-lit courts.

💡Bonus Tip: Can You Spot the Pizza Paddle in Chiang Mai?

If you spot a pizza paddle while playing in Chiang Mai, it's probably from Savor Serve.

You can find our paddles at BokBok Pickleball & Cafe, Chiang Mai Rally House Pickleball Club, and Welcome Dink Pickleball CNX.

And despite the pizza look, they’re made for real play—with Toray T700 carbon fiber, a gritty surface for spin, and 16mm thermoformed construction.
