Pickleball
Pickleball is now the official sport of Washington, and Redmond Parks and Recreation is excited to support pickleball in our community!
We offer year-round outdoor play at eight locations, indoor drop-in play at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse, summer pickleball clinics, and regular cleaning and maintenance on all courts. We will also be adding indoor pickleball courts at the new Redmond Senior & Community Center!

- How do I give input on amenities or changes that I want to see at different parks?
-
The City of Redmond is currently updating the Parks, Arts, Recreation, Culture, and Conservation (PARCC) Plan, which is used to determine future facilities, programs, activities, events, etc. It serves as both a strategic and functional plan that helps guide resources to manage and enhance our parks, playgrounds, community centers, courts, forests, and trails. Any change to existing park amenities will need to be vetted by city leadership, staff, stakeholders, community members, the Parks and Trails Commission, and City Council. To give your input (i.e. installation of a practice wall at Perrigo Park, conversion of courts, etc.) please Share Your Ideas for the future of pickleball in Redmond. Your feedback will help make sure parks and recreation amenities meet the needs of our growing and diverse community.

- Can I modify courts such as laying down my own tape or add temporary markings to line a court, or build a practice wall for pickleball in public parks?
-
No. Modifications or markings of any kind (tape or chalk, etc) will result in the need for more frequent closures for court cleaning and could impact court availability for public use. Temporary structures are not allowed. Temporary structures that are found will be removed immediately, as they can cause a public safety hazard and/or could impact other user groups.
