IHCL Goa introduces Aguada Pickleball arena

IHCL Goa has launched the Aguada Pickleball Arena at Sinquerim Beach, furthering its legacy of innovative leisure experiences. Set against the backdrop of the Sinquerim coastline, the arena is positioned to become a major attraction for sports enthusiasts and leisure travellers.

As pickleball continues to gain global popularity, IHCL Goa's investment in this facility highlights its commitment to emerging lifestyle trends, blending wellness, fitness, and leisure in one venue. Situated opposite the iconic Taj Fort Aguada Resort & Spa, the arena promises a world-class sporting experience for both guests and non-residents.

Commenting on the launch, Ranjit Phillipose, Sr Vice President - Operations, IHCL Goa said, “ Pickleball, a fusion of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong, is rapidly gaining popularity due to its accessibility, inclusivity, and social appeal.”

This initiative aligns with the growing demand for active tourism and complements Goa’s push to become a global hub for sports tourism. Additionally, the sustainable development of the arena, using repurposed spaces, reflects IHCL Goa’s dedication to minimal environmental impact while enhancing social and economic benefits.
