Courtside Tennis & Pickleball has run for 35 years as a family-owned Sacramento-area racket sports retailer, now spanning three brick-and-mortar stores (Sacramento, Gold River, and Oakland’s Rockridge neighborhood). Current owner Will started working there at 18 and later bought the business from the original owners, now running it with partner Jennifer. The shop stocks tennis and pickleball paddles and racquets, court shoes, and apparel, with same-day racquet stringing guaranteed within an hour by appointment, and a popular $25 demo program letting customers borrow 3 racquets or paddles at a time, with pickleball paddle rentals extendable to 30 days to try multiple models before buying. The store price-matches any licensed online retailer. It holds a 4.5 rating across 56 Google reviews.
