Franklin Pickleball Club UK

We’re saddened to share that Kingston Council has refused our planning application. Their refusal was due to concerns about the facility’s impact on Kingston Town Centre and insufficient proof that the unit couldn’t find an industrial tenant. (despite it being empty for 3 years). A big thank you to our sponsors Franklin for their support from the outset. Though we did not succeed this time, Pickleball is at the start of its journey in London. Other authorities will surely recognise the need for dedicated facilities and the physical, mental and social benefits as they are undeniable…

Planning deferred again by Kingston Council. We are staying patient and hopeful. New decision date is 22nd October 2024.

Our planning decision has been delayed until 16th October. The good news is that the feedback from the planners has been positive so far! 🙌 Stay tuned for more updates next week – exciting times ahead! ⚡️
