A Utah-based pickleball company has set its sights on its first Johnson County location.
The Picklr plans to open a new pickleball club at a redeveloping Olathe shopping center later this year.
The Picklr is coming to 16630 W. 135th St.
- The pickleball club will move into a space at the redeveloping Indian Creek Crossing shopping center, just off 135th Street and Mur-Len Road.
- There, it will neighbor the recently-opened Crunch Fitness facility, where Goodwill used to be.
- Hobby Lobby previously occupied The Picklr’s long-vacant space, before it closed in 2018.

The Picklr will have 15 indoor courts
- The Picklr’s Olathe club will offer 15 indoor courts, as well as other features like a pro shop, private event area, locker rooms and showers.
- The Pickle’s clubs also offer a variety of leagues and programs for both adults and kids.
- The Utah-based company has more than 500 pickleball clubs across the country.
The Olathe shopping center is getting a makeover
- The Picklr will serve as the latest addition to the Indian Creek Crossing shopping center — formerly the Rosebud Plaza.
- Crunch Fitness marked the first new addition to the shopping center when it opened in January.
- QuikTrip is also eyeing a space at the Indian Creek Crossing shopping center.
- Ultimately, roughly $26 million will be poured into revamping the long-vacant shopping center, with renovations to the buildings and parking lot upgrades planned.
