Pickleball is our newest racquet sport and is making its mark on Chapel Hill. In April, of 2022, we designated and painted two of our hard courts for our members to play pickleball, which are blocked off weekly for open play. We added 8 indoor Pickleball courts, to add to our 4 outdoor courts. On occasion, typically for special events and socials, we put tape down on our other 4 hard courts, allowing for 12 outdoor pickleball courts. 

Looking to play Pickleball outside? We have Pickleball lined courts available in five of our parks available for free on a first-come, first-serve basis!
