Pickleball
Welcome to Seattle's public pickleball court resource page! Pickleball combines elements of tennis, badminton and ping pong, and is played on a shorter court than tennis (like badminton), with a modified tennis net. Whether it's doubles or singles, pickleball can be enjoyed by all ages and skill levels. Seattle Parks and Recreation has many outdoor tennis courts striped for pickleball play, and our community centers offer indoor opportunities to drop in and play for free.
Indoor Courts
Free drop-in at community centers: find drop-in times and locations. Free! No registration required, but players must check-in at the front desk.
Outdoor Courts
Your best bet for playing at a specific time is to reserve a court! In the Seattle Parks and Recreation system, courts are reserved via the Amy Yee Tennis Center, or directly online using our registration portal. Please go to the Amy Yee Court Reservations and Costs page for information about how to reserve.
When courts are not booked, they are open for drop-in use (first come, first served) for a 90-minute maximum. If someone shows up with proof of reservation, drop-ins must yield the court.
Reservations must be made at least 24 hours and up to two weeks in advance. No same-day bookings. Cancellations must be made 48 hours in advance.
Rainout policy: If it rains and you didn't use your reservation, Amy Yee Tennis Center must be notified by phone at (206) 684-4764 within 24 hours. A credit will be applied to your account for future use for Seattle Parks and Recreation activities.
Nets
Nets are supplied at many courts, but not all. See the charts below, and please bring your own net at locations where courts outnumber Parks-supplied nets.
Outdoor Court Locations
Choose your desired "court type" filter in the map, then minimize the filter panel (click the double down arrow) and zoom in for results. Use the forward arrow 
to see each court's specifics, like lighting, parking, and restroom access. Zoom in even further for a more detailed satellite image of the courts.
