NEW ROCHELLE—The Cappelli Organization announced on Aug. 25 that PickleRage, an indoor pickleball club, will be opening a new 42,000-square-foot facility at 173 Huguenot St. in Downtown New Rochelle.
PickleRage will be occupying space in a building that formerly housed New York Sports Club. PickleRage is planning to open on Jan. 1, 2026. The New Rochelle location will be PickleRage’s first in Westchester County and the first in New York State.
The new facility will include 14 regulation-size pickleball courts equipped with Smart Court Technology, featuring cameras for gameplay recording and live streaming. Courts will be outfitted with Cushion X joint-friendly flooring to help prevent injuries.
Additional amenities include a player’s lounge, an observation patio, and a pro shop with retail displays, a gear fitting area, and demo equipment. The courts will feature bright overhead lighting, high-performance non-skid surfaces, and optimized temperature and humidity for ideal playing conditions. Exterior upgrades will include new signage along Huguenot Street, along with renovations to the interior front entrance for an enhanced arrival experience.
“We are thrilled to welcome PickleRage to downtown New Rochelle. This exciting new facility will be a great addition to the tremendous vitality and vibrancy of downtown New Rochelle,” said Louis R. Cappelli, Chief Executive Officer of the Cappelli Organization.
PickleRage Chief Operating Officer David Smith said the city is a great fit because of its historic charm, parks and recreation focus, and proximity to New York City. "Its central location, combined with its ongoing growth and investment in recreational opportunities, makes it a perfect match for our mission to make pickleball more accessible across the country," Smith said.
PickleRage, which was founded in 2023, announced its New Rochelle location last month. PickleRage at New Rochelle will be owned and operated by franchisees Brian Snyder and Henry Sztul, the Miami-based company stated.
“We’re excited to bring PickleRage to New Rochelle and proud to launch the brand’s first club in New York,” said Snyder. “As longtime pickleball enthusiasts, we look forward to creating a space where the local community can play, connect, and grow the game.”
“New Rochelle has everything we were looking for—location, energy, and community,” added Sztul. “We’re thrilled to be a part of the city’s growth and help introduce more people to this incredible sport.”
