Subang’s pickleball scene has room for every kind of game. You can step onto a court inside a colosseum, play beside the lake or find a crowd for your next rally.

This edition visits Tomaz, PLAYA, Grand Pickleball Arena, 91 Sports Arena and The Pickle Fence—five venues across Subang Jaya, USJ and nearby Taman Subang Perdana.
Save it for the next time your usual court is booked. Which one would you try first?

September photo dump. It’s all about the 333 bus-of-feels. Spent 72 hours in Sydney. Calories were through the roof, strength training was basically on unpaid leave, and Yo-Chi happened 3 times because apparently I have zero self-control. But somehow, the stress went down, my brain got a much needed reset, and I survived. So technically… all those calories were for mental health lol

Boys (I meant @brianchoooo ), don’t cry watching this. 😂🥹

The imported player. The Aussie coach. 🇦🇺
Who somehow became our teammate, our friend, and eventually, family.

Through the ups, downs and a whole lot of nonsense in between - what a journey it’s been.

Sad to see this chapter end, but so grateful for all the memories we made along the way.

Go smash your next chapter, @alextranpb . You’ll always have a family here. 🤍

Once PLAYA, always PLAYA.

Our Tournament Director Alexander Tran is good at pickleball, we all know that. But can he convince us to buy a property?

Watch as Alex turns on the charm and takes on a whole new challenge at the Paramount Property showroom. Let’s see if his sales game is as strong as his pickleball game! 🫣🏡

Looking for your next home? Make an appointment with the Paramount Property team to explore their show units and discover what’s on offer.

And who knows - you might even find your next home with pickleball facilities right at your doorstep!

Good vibes, great company, and getting up close with the pros. But here’s the real question.. Can you guess which pro will be back this year? 😏🔥

LifeTime Open — Men’s Singles 19+ Open 🥉

First podium of 2026. 🥉

Not the colour I came for, but a podium is a podium and more importantly, another step forward.

Big thank you to my sponsors @thrive.pb.my @thrive.pb @pcklbnd for always believing in me and supporting the journey.

To @alextranpb and @juleecs , thank you for always sharing your advice, and helping me increase my pickle IQ. And @eryangkhoo_pb , thank you for always making time to train with me. 🫡

To @playaracquetclub thank you for being a home where I can always come in, put in the work and keep getting better.

And last but definitely not least, thank you to my wife @marsyaraus for always supporting me in every way possible

Never in a million years did I think a decision to pick up a pickleball paddle at the end of 2024 would lead me here.

I wasn’t an athlete growing up just someone who fell in love with pickleball.

I drilled. I played. I lost. A LOT.

Turns out, the biggest improvements happened off the court. Strength training changed everything.

Grateful to @moveprivatefitness and trainer @yyingjie_ for showing me that getting stronger off the court helped me become a better player on it.

And somewhere along that journey came an opportunity I never saw coming.

Out of 192 applicants across Asia, I was selected as 1 of only 20 for the Friday University Academy by @fridaypickleball.asia 🤍

Thank you @fridaypickleball.asia , for this incredible opportunity. I can’t wait to learn, create and grow over the next four days with @james_lin.pb and the team 🤍

You don’t need to be the most talented person in the room, the most experienced, or even sure you’ll be any good — whether you’ve never played a sport, have zero experience, or even think you’re “too late” 💀 😂. If you have the courage to start and the consistency to keep going, good things can happen.

Hopefully that’s the lesson my sons grow up seeing. 🇲🇾
