Fort Lauderdale Magazine Spotlights the FORT

Fort Lauderdale’s premier sports complex is serving up national attention as America’s pickleball capital.

Check the FORT out in the June 2025 issue of Fort Lauderdale Magazine. 

Once considered a quirky cousin to tennis, pickleball is now a nationwide sensation — and Fort Lauderdale’s The FORT is leading the charge. Located on a scenic lakefront with 43 regulation courts (14 of them covered), The Fort is a vibrant hub for leagues, lessons, and pro-level tournaments. Founded by Brad Tuckman and Rich Campillo in collaboration with APP Tour founder Ken Herrmann, the facility also boasts a professional-grade stadium, shaded spectator areas, a beer garden, and plans for a resort hotel. The Fort has quickly become South Florida’s top destination for both seasoned pros and curious newcomers alike.
