Miami Valley could become home to Ohio’s largest indoor pickleball facility

Ohio’s largest indoor pickleball court could be built in the Miami Valley.

Black Barn’s vision for an indoor pickleball court could become a reality in Riverside by Spring 2025.

They broke ground on the first phase — eight indoor and eight outdoor pickleball courts.

The second phase is another building containing an additional 14 courts.

After the second phase is completed, Black Barn Pickleball will have 30 courts making it the largest indoor pickleball facility in Ohio.

“Tons of people enjoy it. It’s growing so fast. So we feel like, if we can sustain that growth, we need to build for the future,” Mike Bettencourt, co-founder of Black Barn Pickleball said.

Those who live near the site are open to the expansion.

Ranjani Powers runs a yoga studio and lives nearby.

“They said they’ll be closed by 10 p.m. so that’s bedtime for around here for most of us,” Powers said.
