It had its grand opening in July 2025 as a facility the US brand DIADEM operates in Japan, with 5 courts inside ITC Kobe Indoor Tennis School.<\/p>\n<h3>Features of the Indoor Court<\/h3>\n<p>It has 5 indoor-only courts, so you can play regardless of the weather. It is a large indoor facility widely open to the general public, an environment easy to use for everyone from beginners to experienced players.<\/p>\n<h2>Usage Guide<\/h2>\n<h3>Fees and Reservations<\/h3>\n<p>The rental court fee is about 4,400 yen per hour as a guideline. Please check the reservation method and availability on the official site.<\/p>\n<h3>Access and Contact<\/h3>\n<p>The address is Wakamatsu-cho 2-1-16, Nagata Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo, inside ITC Kobe Indoor Tennis School. Please check the detailed directions and the latest reservation methods and fees in the official information (<a href=\"https:\/\/dpckobe.jp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official website<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h2>Play Comfortably on Indoor Courts<\/h2>\n<h3>Go Without Worrying About the Weather<\/h3>\n<p>Because it is indoor-only, you can play in a stable environment year-round, unaffected by rain, extreme heat, or cold. Being easy to visit to fit your daily rhythm, such as after work or early morning, is also an advantage of indoor facilities.<\/p>\n<h3>How to Use Reservations and Rentals<\/h3>\n<p>Many indoor-only courts are reservation-based hourly rentals. If there are paddle and ball rentals, you can start empty-handed, so for your first visit, check whether equipment loans are available for peace of mind.<\/p>\n<h2>Tips for Improving and Enjoying<\/h2>\n<h3>Be Aware of the Kitchen<\/h3>\n<p>The dink (a soft, dropping shot) in the non-volley zone (kitchen) near the net is the key to tactics. Being mindful of control rather than power shots makes it easier to seize the initiative in a rally.<\/p>\n<h3>Keep Going with Fellow Players<\/h3>\n<p>Going to the same facility regularly deepens coordination with opponents and partners and speeds up improvement. Because it is a doubles-centered sport, making friends is also part of the fun.<\/p>\n<h2>Enjoy Pickleball in Hyogo<\/h2>\n<p>In Hyogo, a full-fledged indoor-only facility has come into place in the Kobe area, so you can now enjoy pickleball year-round.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pt-area-cta\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/basic-knowledge\/kansai-pickleball-courts\/\">\u25b6 See the list of facilities in Kansai (Osaka, Kyoto, Hyogo)<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ssp_meta_description":"DPC KOBE\uff08\u795e\u6238\uff09\u306e\u30b3\u30fc\u30c8\u60c5\u5831\u30fb\u8a2d\u5099\u30fb\u30a2\u30af\u30bb\u30b9\u3092\u7d39\u4ecb\u3002\u30d4\u30c3\u30af\u30eb\u30dc\u30fc\u30eb\u65bd\u8a2d\u30ac\u30a4\u30c9\u3002","swell_btn_cv_data":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[123,35,130],"region":[355],"venue_area":[242],"venue_type":[250],"venue_surface":[],"venue_indoor":[261],"venue_facility":[267],"venue_booking":[],"venue_fee":[],"class_list":["post-1295","venue","type-venue","status-publish","hentry","category-coart","tag-year-2026","tag-coart","tag-facility","region-r-hyogo","venue_area-hyogo","venue_type-permanent-court","venue_indoor-indoor","venue_facility-rental-equipment"],"acf":{"address_text":"\u5175\u5eab\u770c\u795e\u6238\u5e02\u9577\u7530\u533a\u82e5\u677e\u753a2-1-16 ITC\u795e\u6238\u30a4\u30f3\u30c9\u30a2\u30c6\u30cb\u30b9\u30b9\u30af\u30fc\u30eb\u5185","lat":34.6575585,"lng":135.1477409,"court_count":5,"photo_url":null,"place_id":"ChIJjStp86KFAGARMaakOYQFgMA","reservation_url":"","official_url":"https:\/\/dpckobe.jp\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue\/1295","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/venue"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1295"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/region?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"venue_area","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue_area?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"venue_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue_type?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"venue_surface","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue_surface?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"venue_indoor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue_indoor?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"venue_facility","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue_facility?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"venue_booking","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue_booking?post=1295"},{"taxonomy":"venue_fee","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pickle-times.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/venue_fee?post=1295"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
