Pickleball clubs in the Netherlands

Pickleball in the Netherlands is run by the Koninklijke Nederlandse Lawn Tennis Bond (KNLTB), the same royal federation as tennis and padel, through a dedicated brand/site (nlpickleball.nl, also using the pickleball.nl domain as a partner). KNLTB and the earlier grassroots body Pickleball Holland signed a cooperation agreement in November 2022; from January 2025 KNLTB became the official federation for pickleball in the Netherlands, succeeding that partnership. Growth has been rapid: from roughly 500 players in 2022 to over 3,000 by late 2025, playable at around 40 KNLTB locations with about 30 active pickleball groups nationwide. KNLTB organises a Dutch national championship (NK Pickleball) and fields a Netherlands national team at the EPF European Championship (winning two gold and one bronze medal at the 2026 edition in Italy), and has struck partnerships with equipment/venue partners (Dunlop, Picklemat, Pickleball.nl).
