Syosset's best indoor winter options sit behind a row of loading docks. Long Island Sports Hub at 165 Eileen Way now has an ice rink, turf fields, a hardwood court and, since its Padel& tenant opened on the second floor, four padel courts. The same industrial pocket holds seven indoor pickleball courts on Michael Drive and a gym on Robbins Lane that opens at 4 a.m. on weekdays.
The cluster also covers a wide price range. Depending on the sport and the night, an hour of play here costs about $12 a person or $55 a person. Knowing which door to walk through matters more in November than it did in July.
One building, four surfaces
Long Island Sports Hub describes itself as a family-run, 72,000-square-foot climate-controlled facility with turf fields, a hardwood court and an ice rink. It runs leagues, clinics and rentals for multiple ages. Its program list covers basketball leagues and open courts, adult pickup soccer, baseball and softball, hockey, lacrosse, volleyball, toddler multisport and strength training.
Some outside groups also use the building. The Hub's affiliate list includes the Long Island Curling Club, Long Island Gladiators, Lil' Kickers, Base Sports Conditioning, Troyan Goaltending Academy and B&B Volleyball.
The curling club may surprise people. The Long Island Curling Club was founded in 2008. It is run entirely by volunteers and has been a 501(c)(3) nonprofit since 2014. Its leagues and events are held at the Hub. Its pitch is aimed at anyone who has watched curling at the Olympics and wanted to try it. Equipment is provided, and the only instruction is to dress warmly.
The most recent public Learn to Curl clinic ran October 24 from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. and cost $75 per person. The club posts new public sessions on its Learn to Curl page. For November, the ice belongs to the fall leagues:
- Fall 2026 Sunday League: 7:30 p.m. on November 1, 8, 15 and 22, plus December 6. The fee is $295.
- Fall 2026 Saturday League Two: 7:30 p.m. on November 7, 14 and 21. The fee is $125.
The same ice also holds the Hub's youth hockey program. The winter session of Learn to Play runs from November 21, 2026, to January 31, 2027, on Saturdays and Sundays from 4 to 5 p.m. It costs $350 and is for ages 5 to 10. On a winter Saturday, a family can drop off a young skater at 4 p.m. and have adults on the curling sheets at 7:30 p.m. without changing parking lots.
The second floor turned into something new
Padel& added the newest layer. Long Island Business News reported in October 2025 that the chain planned a 15,000-square-foot club on the Hub's second floor. It described padel as a cross between tennis and squash and said the Syosset club would bring the sport to Long Island. Brothers Markus and Rikard Hellqvist founded the company. They previously built Padel United in Europe, which merged into what LIBN called the world's largest operator of padel facilities. Before Syosset, the chain had opened one location in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
The club is now open. Padel& Syosset lists four doubles courts, 25-foot ceilings, coaching for all levels including kids and juniors, a pro shop with racket rental, and men's and women's locker rooms with a sauna and cold plunge. It is open 7 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. No membership is needed to walk in and play.
The official welcome hasn't happened yet. The Syosset Woodbury Jericho Chamber of Commerce has scheduled the ribbon-cutting for Tuesday, November 3, from 5:30 to about 7:30 p.m. at 165 Eileen Way, Suite 200.
What an hour actually costs, door to door
The posted rates are hard to compare because each club prices differently. Some charge per court, some per person and some per session. Splitting everything into a per-player hour puts them on the same scale. Padel& lists its courts as doubles courts, so the court rentals below are split among a group of four, and the pickleball court is split the same way to keep the comparison even. All prices are as listed on each club's site in October 2026.
| Option | Posted price | Per player, per hour |
|---|---|---|
| The Pickle Club open play, 2 hours | $25 | about $12.50 |
| The Pickle Club open play, 1.5 hours | $20 | about $13.35 |
| The Pickle Club court rental, split four ways | $55 per court hour | about $13.75 |
| Padel& Social Cup open play, 2 hours | $75 | $37.50 |
| Curling Learn to Curl clinic, 2 hours | $75 | $37.50 |
| Padel& member court rental, split four ways | $160 per court hour | $40 |
| Padel& non-member court rental, split four ways | $220 per court hour | $55 |
Pickleball is the cheapest indoor option on the block by a wide margin. A non-member padel hour costs about four times as much per player. Padel's Social Cup cuts that gap, and at $37.50 an hour it costs the same as a first night of curling. For someone who wants to try padel before booking a court, the Social Cup is the lowest-cost way in.
Padel& memberships cost $175 a month for an individual, $300 for a couple and $400 for a family. There is a $250 or $450 registration fee. Members get discounted bookings and can reserve courts 14 days ahead. At $60 saved per court hour compared with the non-member rate, a member who books the whole court covers the $175 monthly fee in about three hours a month.
The Michael Drive side of the block
Down the road from the Hub, The Pickle Club at 300 Michael Drive has seven indoor cushioned courts. It offers court reservations of up to two hours, open play with a paddle rotation so partners change, clinics, lessons, leagues and tournaments. It is open 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. on weekdays, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday and 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday.
The same street covers younger kids and anyone who wants a workout instead of a game:
- Bounce! Family Entertainment Center, 330 Michael Drive: paid open play with trampolines, a soft-play toddler area, a ninja net course, laser tag, bumper cars and arcade games.
- Good Culture Fitness, 180 Michael Drive: strength, HIIT and functional fitness classes in 45- to 60-minute blocks, with recovery equipment and a free first class.
- Infiniti Elite Gymnastics, 10 Aerial Way: classes from 18 months through the teen years, recreational gymnastics, obstacle-course programs and school-break camps. It is open 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on weekdays and 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday.
On Robbins Lane, the block's hours stretch much further. Bev Francis Powerhouse Gym at 235-C Robbins Lane opens at 4 a.m. on weekdays and stays open until midnight. Life Time Syosset at 350 Robbins Lane keeps the same weekday hours. It adds pools, basketball, pickleball and swim lessons, and adult memberships start at $358 a month. A-Force Brazilian Jiu Jitsu at 235 Robbins Lane runs kids' and adult classes and offers a free first class. Taken together, there's somewhere to play or train in this pocket from 4 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. on a weekday.
The dated nights through December
Padel& lists its recurring sessions on Playtomic. Each one starts at 7 p.m., runs 120 minutes and costs $75.
- Beginner Social Cup, Wednesdays: November 4, 11, 18 and 25, and December 2, 9, 16, 23 and 30.
- Intermediate Social Cup, Thursdays: November 5, 12, 19 and 26, and December 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31.
The Thursday list includes Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. Check those three nights in the app before planning around them. Combined with the curling leagues and the November 3 ribbon-cutting, the Hub has something on the calendar Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday nights through most of November.
The Social Cups are also the cheapest way to try the newest sport in Syosset. Two hours costs the same as the curling clinic, and the sauna and cold plunge are down the hall in the locker rooms. The Hub has no posted public skating or adult pickup dates for November and December yet, so its programs page is the one to check as the winter session fills in.
