About this place

Six outdoor pickleball courts, and the six is the City's own arithmetic on one line: "2 courts with adjustable net straps, 4 courts with portable nets if needed and all have painted lines". Two courts carry a net permanently. Four more are painted for pickleball and take a portable net when one is wanted, and the City does not say who brings it.

This is the City's beginner venue on its own schedule. Open Play here is labelled "Beginner & Adv. Beginner Open Play" on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings, with "Intermed. Open Play" on Saturday afternoons, and the City's Wednesday morning clinics are held here too.

Getting there

450 West 4th Avenue, Tallahassee, FL 32303. The US Census address geocoder matched "450 W 4TH AVE, TALLAHASSEE, FL, 32303" at house-number level, in Leon County inside the incorporated place Tallahassee city. The City prints no postcode for this venue, so the 32303 is the resolver's.

The City publishes nothing about parking here and nothing about restrooms. The phone number on the pickleball page is 850-891-3930.

What to expect

A rotation on three mornings a week and one afternoon, free. Open Play runs Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday 8:00am-12:00pm for beginners and advanced beginners, and Saturday 2:00pm-5:00pm for intermediates, and the City prices it at nothing: "all Open Play sessions are drop-in and free". Inside a session the "RACK" sets the order, games go to 11 and win by 2, or to 9 with all four players off when six are waiting.

Monday, Wednesday and Friday are first come, first play only, with a 90 minute limit when others are waiting and no price stated. No Reserved Play is scheduled here at all. Lighting is not stated, so evening play is an open question rather than a yes. Surface is not stated.

What claiming does and does not doShow less

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.

Something wrong here?

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.
