About The Pickle Island · Battaramulla.

Location

The Pickle Island Battaramulla branch is down Battaramulla-Pannipitiya Road. It's the third and newest branch of The Pickle Island, set away from the urban noise and surrounded by greenery.

The courts and facilities

Three professional covered outdoor courts, built to shield players from both the midday heat and the rain while keeping the open-air setting. All equipment, paddles and balls are provided. There's a large parking area on site.

Atmosphere

Relaxed and green, with an eco-friendly character that sets it apart from the city branches. It's very beginner-friendly, with staff who'll teach first-timers the game, but it's also an active community venue: it hosts competitive local events like the MoneyBall Series and corporate tournaments, and made history as the site of Sri Lanka's first-ever Para Veterans Pickleball event, establishing itself as a genuinely accessible and adaptive space. Suits everyone from complete beginners to players wanting organised, competitive play.

Frequently asked.
