PickleRage Franchise FDD, Costs & Fees (2025)

PickleRage offers pickleball equipment and accessories, providing players with high-quality gear to enhance their performance on the court.

PickleRage is a fast-growing indoor pickleball franchise founded in 2023. The brand was launched in Miami Beach, Florida, where it is also headquartered. Franchising began in late 2023, offering investors a chance to enter one of the fastest-growing sports markets in the U.S.

Each PickleRage facility is designed to deliver a premium pickleball experience.

Locations include at least nine regulation-size indoor courts with CushionX flooring, advanced lighting, and video recording capabilities. Amenities like snack counters, pro shops, and dedicated areas for lessons, leagues, and tournaments ensure appeal to casual players and enthusiasts alike.

What differentiates PickleRage is its partnership with a major real estate firm, helping franchisees secure prime locations and favorable lease terms.

Training

PickleRage Franchise LLC provides a structured and multi-level training program to ensure franchisees and their teams are well-prepared to operate their facilities. Here are the key training components:

  1. Initial Training Program: The Operating Principal and General Manager must attend and successfully complete the franchise’s initial training program. This training is conducted over five business days at designated training centers in New Jersey or Broward County, Florida, and includes lectures, practice sessions, and the Brand Standards Manual.
  2. Owners and Brand Management Training: The Operating Principal is required to complete an owner's training program, while both the Operating Principal and General Manager must attend and complete the brand management training at the headquarters or another designated location.
  3. Additional Trained Personnel: Franchisees may send up to three additional staff members to the initial training at no additional cost. Any further participants may attend subject to approval and a discounted fee. All trained personnel must meet the ongoing training requirements.

Territory Protection

PickleRage Franchise LLC grants franchisees a right to operate at a specific, accepted location, but it does not provide an exclusive territory. This means that while you are allowed to establish and operate one facility at a designated site, you may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or alternative distribution channels controlled by the franchisor.

The absence of exclusive territorial rights may impact your ability to secure a unique market area. However, PickleRage does offer some form of territorial protection under specific conditions.

During the term of the Franchise Agreement, and provided the franchisee complies with all contractual obligations, the franchisor agrees not to license or establish another facility at the same approved location.
