Pickleball Kingdom doubles down in New Jersey with twin local franchisees 

Pickleball Kingdom, a leader in indoor pickleball that plans to roll out 20 clubs within the Garden State, just doubled down on its expansion by partnering with twin brothers in the area, Andrew and Matt LoBrace.

The LoBrace brothers both hold a B.S. and MBA in finance from Rider University. They have a successful real estate venture, which began in 2009, and they now place in the Top 5% of Realtors in Somerset County.

“New Jersey is a great market for us. Part of our ‘secret sauce’ is the talent of the people that we have attracted to become franchisees of the Kingdom. And Andrew and Matt are among the top of that list,” founder and CEO of Pickleball Kingdom Ace Rodrigues said.

The LoBraces collectively echoed: “By marrying our business expertise with our passion for pickleball, we will be able to share our passion for this great sport within the incredible Pickleball Kingdom brand with our community. The future is bright and exciting!”

Rob Streett, chief operating officer of Pickleball Kingdom, added: “I’m so impressed with the applications we continue to receive from people in New Jersey who are interested in becoming franchisees with us. And Andrew and Matt epitomize that quality. They’re smart, driven, and passionate. I want more people like the LoBraces to contact me.”
