Tulsa, OK (January 7, 2025)—The Oil Capital of the World is serving up something new as Diadem Sports, a premier pickleball brand, announces the grand reopening celebration of its Tulsa facility. Through a strategic partnership, the former TOPSEED Pickleball facility has transformed into the Diadem Pickleball Complex Tulsa, marking the company's second location following its successful Coconut Creek, Florida complex.
The two-day celebration will kick off on January 11th with a high-stakes Moneyball tournament featuring professional players competing for cash prizes. On January 12th, the facility will host a community open house where the public can experience the courts, meet the staff, learn about new programming, and, most importantly, play pickleball.
"Seeing the passion for pickleball in the Tulsa community confirmed this as the ideal market for our expansion,” said Michael Manglardi, Co-Founder of Diadem Sports. “The existing facility impressed us with its exceptional court layouts and dedicated team. We’re eager to build on their foundation and introduce a new programming style designed for players of all levels. This facility embodies our core brand value, 'Live to Play,' by making pickleball enjoyable and accessible for everyone."
The 27,900-square-foot facility initially opened in the fall of 2023 and features nine indoor climate-controlled and three outdoor lighted courts, ensuring year-round play. Under the Diadem partnership, the complex will provide specialized trainers and comprehensive programming, including intro classes, beginner clinics, advanced leagues, open plays, and social mixers, all supported by enhanced marketing initiatives.
"Our programming is designed to give new players a warm welcome to the sport while also giving intermediate and advanced players that extra edge when competing," said Gene Devito, National Director of Programming. "From Intro to Pickleball Clinics to Pro-Level Moneyball tournaments, we're creating an environment where players can connect, improve, have fun, and make new friends. Players can expect a uniquely approachable yet competitive environment that sets Diadem facilities apart."
The Tulsa facility is located at 2795 E 91st Street. Facility owners interested in licensing opportunities should contact Michael Manglardi at michael.manglardi@diademsports.com.
