PickleRage to open 42,000 s/f at Cappelli’s 173 Huguenot St.

New Rochelle, NY The Cappelli Organization said that PickleRage will be opening a new facility at 173 Huguenot St.

PickleRage will be occupying 42,000 s/f in a building which formerly housed New York Sports Club. PickleRage is planning to open on January 1, 2026. The 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 overhead lighting, non-skid surfaces, and optimized temperature and humidity for playing conditions. Exterior upgrades will include new signage along Huguenot St., along with renovations to the interior front entrance. 

“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 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.
