How it works

How we find clubs before they open

A repeatable weekly process built on public sources, with each project verified and tagged by stage.

Sources

What we monitor

Building permits

Municipal and county permit filings that indicate a racquet facility is moving toward construction.

Zoning & planning agendas

Planning commission, zoning board and city council agendas, minutes and site plan applications.

Local news

Local and regional reporting on new clubs, redevelopments and leases.

Developer announcements

Operator, franchise and developer press releases, websites and social posts.

Verification

Every project is checked

Each entry links back to at least one public source (shared with Pro members), is tagged by sport, location and stage, and carries a last-verified date. When a project moves stage, is delayed or is cancelled, we update the record.

Cadence

Weekly, every week

New projects and stage changes are compiled weekly. Free subscribers get a redacted teaser of new finds; Pro members get the full list, contacts where public, stage alerts and CSV export.
