Pickleball at Lafayette Park in Tallahassee, FL. Every fact below shows where it came from and when we checked it. 5 of 22 fields are confirmed, and the rest say so rather than guessing.
501 Ingleside Drive, Tallahassee, FL
Placeholder image, not a photograph of this venue. We have not photographed Lafayette Park, and we would rather show a marked stand-in than a picture that implies we have. The correction link below reaches the same queue a photograph would.
Two outdoor pickleball courts with nets, "2 courts with net tie-downs", in the park that shares its grounds with the Sue Herndon McCollum Community Center. It is the one venue in Tallahassee where the City says you can borrow the kit: "paddles and balls available inside the Sue McCollum Community Center only during regular office hours". The courts are first come, first play only.
The centre's own page describes Lafayette Park as a 22-acre park with a recreation centre, an Arts and Crafts Center, a playground, a softball field, tennis courts, a picnic shelter and a one-mile trail. Its hours, the hours that govern the paddles, are Monday to Friday 9:00am to 9:00pm and Saturday 1:00pm to 9:00pm. The page states nothing for Sunday.
501 Ingleside Drive, Tallahassee, FL 32303, as the City's pickleball page writes it, and the City writes it two ways. The Sue McCollum Community Center's page, for the building on the same grounds, prints "501 Ingleside Avenue", and the US Census address geocoder agrees with the centre, matching "501 INGLESIDE AVE, TALLAHASSEE, FL, 32303" at house-number level in Leon County inside Tallahassee city. OpenStreetMap holds no Ingleside Drive at that number, so there is one street here under two City spellings.
The City says nothing about parking. The centre's phone number is 850-891-3946.
Two first come courts with nets, no session and no price, and a community centre beside them that lends paddles and balls during office hours. That makes this the one Tallahassee venue where arriving with nothing is a plan, provided you arrive between 9:00am and 9:00pm on a weekday or after 1:00pm on a Saturday. Outside those hours the courts are still there and the kit is not. The 90 minute limit applies when others are waiting.
No fee answer is published, because the City schedules neither Open Play nor Reserved Play here. Lighting is not stated and surface is not stated. For a rotation rather than a game, the City's free Open Play is at LeVerne Payne and Tom Brown.

Thanks. Your review is in the queue: a person reads every one before it appears here, so it will not show up straight away.

| Court availability | Two outdoor pickleball courts with nets - "2 courts with net tie-downs" - at the park that shares its site with the Sue McCollum Community Center, where the City says "paddles and balls available inside the Sue McCollum Community Center only during regular office hours". The courts are "No Open or Reserved Play - FCFP Only": first come, first play, 90-minute limit when others are waiting, and no price stated. The City writes the address two ways on one page - "501 Ingleside Drive" on the pickleball line, "501 Ingleside Avenue" for the community centre - and the Census address file resolves it as Avenue; the same house number, one site. The community centre's indoor court runs Open Play on Wednesdays and Reserved Play on Monday and Friday mornings, but the City states no indoor count, so only the outdoor courts publish. Lighting and surface are not stated. | talgov.com | 2026-09-07 |

Not stated. No Open Play is scheduled here and the City prices nothing for first-come play, so no fee answer is published.
The Sue McCollum centre is on the City's indoor schedule with Open Play on Wednesdays and Reserved Play on Monday and Friday mornings, but no indoor count is stated, so nothing indoor is published.
You can claim this listing and correct anything on it. To be clear about what claiming does and does not do: it gives you control of your own facts and a channel to reach us, and it is shown on the page as confirmed by the venue with the date you confirmed it.
It does not mark the listing verified, because a claim tells us who you are rather than checking what is here, and those are different things. It also buys no ranking, no sorting and no placement advantage over an unclaimed venue. The moment claiming bought position this would be an advertising product rather than a directory, and the whole promise would be gone.
If you play here and this is out of date, tell us. Corrections come with a source and a date attached, the same as everything else, and a correction that changes a court count gets checked against the city record before it goes live.
