A new era for pickleball on Hilton Head officially began Friday, May 2, as Dill Dinkers celebrated the grand opening of the island’s first dedicated indoor pickleball facility with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and community open play.

Located at 93 Mathews Drive, the former location of Sams Club, Dill Dinkers Hilton Head welcomed players of all ages and skill levels to experience its eight state-of-the-art Pro-Cushion® courts during the celebratory event. The ceremony, hosted in partnership with the Hilton Head Island-Bluffton Chamber of Commerce, marked the official launch of the rapidly growing indoor pickleball franchise’s newest location.
The event included remarks from club leadership and offered media and visitors a chance to meet with key figures behind the local operation, including Pete Bernstein, director of operations and sales; Sam Tourlitis, director of pickleball; Zach Larichiuta, co-owner of Dill Dinkers Hilton Head; and Will Richards, co-founder and CEO of Dill Dinkers.

Founded on the values of fun, community and inclusivity, Dill Dinkers has grown into a national leader in indoor pickleball, offering clubs designed specifically for recreational and competitive play in welcoming, climate-controlled environments.

The Hilton Head facility features a clean, modern layout and is expected to become a central hub for local pickleball enthusiasts seeking year-round access to high-quality courts and instruction.
