## Story

The new Dill Dinkers club sits across from Hanes Mall, which features a wide array of retail, dining and entertainment options. With accessibility from I-40, residents and visitors can access the club's courts at their convenience.

Designed for year-round play, Dill Dinkers Winston-Salem will feature ProCushion™ courts, event spaces, PlaySight technology to record matches and a Pro Shop. Players can take advantage of private and semi-private lessons, open play, tournaments, leagues and events. Reservations can be made via the Dill Dinkers website and app powered by CourtReserve.

The club will be owned and operated by Scott and Lori Dixon. They plan to foster a welcoming environment for local pickleball players of all skill levels.

“Our team has the pleasure of opening Dill Dinkers’ first club in North Carolina, and it’s an incredibly meaningful milestone to introduce the Winston-Salem community to everything we have to offer,” said Scott Dixon. “Unpredictable weather conditions can make outdoor play challenging, presenting a strong need for indoor spaces. Community is a pillar of pickleball culture, and working with Dill Dinkers allows us to create welcoming and inclusive clubs where all players can experience the joy of the sport.”

Ahead of the opening, Dill Dinkers Wintson-Salem released introductory memberships for individuals, couples and families. Memberships are designed to provide value and accessibility, with benefits including preferred booking access, discounted court fees, and savings on leagues, clinics and events, while maintaining capped membership levels to ensure a high‑quality playing experience.

Dill Dinkers began in November 2022 in Columbia, Maryland, and operates dedicated indoor pickleball clubs. The company has multiple locations and offers a nationwide franchise program. The brand currently operates a number of indoor pickleball clubs. As part of ongoing operations, Dill Dinkers continues to partner with qualified franchisees and has a nationwide footprint including various locations.
