About this place

Fifteen pickleball courts at the City's Riverside Tennis Center, and the only venue in Wichita where the City answers the lighting question. Its tab reads, in full: "551 Nims / Phone: 316-337-9257 / 9 outdoors with court lights for night play / 6 indoors (these are double-striped over the 3 tennis courts)", followed by two links, "Reserve a Pickleball Court" and "Take Pickleball Lessons". Nine and six are the City's figures; fifteen is their sum.

The six indoor courts are pickleball lines painted over three indoor tennis courts, so what you find inside depends on whether tennis is being played on the same floor. With Edgemoor's fifteen it is the joint-largest venue in the city, and it is the one with a published reservation link.

Getting there

551 Nims, Wichita, KS 67203. The US Census address geocoder matched "551 NIMS ST, WICHITA, KS, 67203" at house-number level and placed it in Sedgwick County, inside the incorporated place Wichita city; the street type is the only thing the Census adds, and no second resolver was needed. Riverside is the only published Wichita venue in 67203.

The City publishes nothing about parking or restrooms. It does publish a phone number, 316-337-9257, on the same line as the counts, and a "Reserve a Pickleball Court" link.

What to expect

Nine outdoor courts under lights, which the City states as "for night play", and six indoor courts sharing a floor with tennis. The City prints no opening or closing time for the centre.

On cost, "Some can be reserved for a small fee while others are first-come-first-serve" is written for the whole city, and the "Reserve a Pickleball Court" link sits on this tab, but the fee itself is not printed, so no price publishes here. Nine lit courts is a rotation after dark, the only one in Wichita with a published lighting answer. Ring 316-337-9257 or use the reservation link; the surface of the outdoor courts is not stated.

Court availability
Fifteen pickleball courts at the City's Riverside Tennis Center on the west bank of the Arkansas River, and the only Wichita venue where the City answers the lighting question: "9 outdoors with court lights for night play" and "6 indoors (these are double-striped over the 3 tennis courts)". Nine and six are the City's two figures; fifteen is their sum. The lights belong to the nine outdoor courts. The six indoor courts are pickleball lines painted over three indoor tennis courts, so what you find indoors depends on whether tennis is being played. This is also the venue the City links a "Reserve a Pickleball Court" button to, which fits its sentence that "Some can be reserved for a small fee while others are first-come-first-serve" - but the fee is not published anywhere on the page, so no price appears here. The imported dataset holds this venue as "Ralph Wulz Riverside Tennis Center" with thirteen courts; that row is left pending and the City's fifteen publishes.

Questions about Riverside Tennis Center

What does double-striped mean?

The six indoor courts are pickleball lines laid over the three indoor tennis courts, so they share a floor with tennis and exist when tennis is not on it.

Why is the older name not used?

The imported dataset holds "Ralph Wulz Riverside Tennis Center" with thirteen courts. The City's page prints "Riverside Tennis Center" and fifteen, and the City's record publishes.

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.
