Big news, Davao Pickleball fam!
Matina Town Square just got an exciting upgrade — we’ve officially opened our 4th Pickleball court! 🎉 This marks a new chapter in our mission to be Davao’s premier Pickleball destination, and we’re leveling up not just in size, but in quality too.
Here’s what’s new and improved:
✅ Edge-to-edge bench seating – more room to relax, cheer on your friends, or catch your breath between sets.
✅ Safety pads – because your safety always comes first.
✅ Electric fans – to keep things cool even when the game heats up.
✅ Better barriers – giving you a more secure and focused playing environment.
✅ Brighter lighting – keeping things nice and bright so you can play deep into the night.
Plus, our website has also been updated to accommodate the 4-court reservations, so booking your next game is even easier. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a weekday regular, we’ve got the space and setup for you.
But perhaps the most exciting update? We’re happy to promote and host the future of Pickleball.
🎾 The Batang Pickleball Academy is launching soon, led by Coach Pastor Kevin Ken Elechichon in Partnership with Selkirk and Ugnat Pickleball. This program is more than just training — it’s a movement to build the next generation of athletes, leaders, and community champions through the sport we all love.
By giving kids the opportunity to learn Pickleball at a young age, it helps to nurture values like teamwork, discipline, and resilience. Whether they grow up to compete, coach, or simply play for fun, these young players will be the heartbeat of Davao’s Pickleball scene for years to come.
At MTS, we believe growing the game starts with growing the community — and that starts with the kids. We’re enthusiastic about Coach Ken’s effort to offer them a safe, supportive, and inspiring environment to learn and thrive.
See the Photo below for details on how to sign up for the Batang Pickleball Academy, and as always — we’ll see you on the courts!
