THESE 1331, Runway 1331
“Three outdoor courts on the old runway apron beside the Runway 1331 youth hostel at the tip of Kai Tak, run by THESE 1331 with Bay Pickle since May 2026. Painted orange-on-blue hard courts with harbour views across to Kwun Tong, among the cheapest bookable courts in Kowloon at HK$120 an hour on weekdays. Daytime only, 9am to 6pm, and it is a long walk or a minibus ride from Kai Tak MTR, so pair it with the Kai Tak waterfront or a hostel stay.”

Closest venues
Nearby courts to consider.
Kowloon · Kwun Tong
DINK Club
Twenty-five floors up in Kwun Tong's Westin Centre, DINK Club turned 10,000 sq ft of office floor into three competition-grade acrylic courts plus a practice court, with Victoria Harbour views between points from the lounge. It leans competitive (cash-prize tournaments and memberships) but paddles and balls are free to borrow, and the HK$250 beginner experience class is one of the easier first steps into the sport in East Kowloon. Booking runs through WhatsApp, so message 6677 0344 rather than expecting an instant calendar.
Kowloon · Kwun Tong
All Time Pickle
A single air-conditioned court in an industrial building seven minutes from Kwun Tong MTR, bookable online around the clock without a membership. Paddles and balls are free to borrow, there is a private toilet and changing room, and the HK$100 night-owl rate makes it one of the cheapest late slots in Kowloon East. The floor is cushioned sports flooring rather than acrylic, so expect a slightly slower bounce, and the run-off beside the sidelines is very tight, so wide balls and ATP-style shots are off the menu.
Kowloon · Ngau Tau Kok
Striver Sports, Ngau Tau Kok
One of the largest court counts in HK at 7. Two-floor industrial space, the best Kowloon option for league play or larger groups that need real depth.
