  • What is the history of pickleball at New World Saigon Hotel?
    In November 2022, Coollien preached/pitched the idea of having pickleball courts at New World Saigon Hotel before anyone knew how to pronounce pickleball (it's not "piko-bone":) in Vietnam. April 2023, New World Saigon Hotel is not only the first luxury hotel in Vietnam, but also the first site in Saigon to have 4 pickleball courts on their multi-purpose facility. End of 2024, New World Saigon Hotel partners with Coollien to start CourtOne.Club, the first premier pickleball training club in Vietnam. March 2025, two years after the pickleball pitch and hosting the first international pickleball coach certification, New World Saigon Hotel makes history again with being the first premier pickleball training club with dedicated courts and certified coaches. The best is yet to come!
