Centre Gabrielle et Marcel Lapalme

Court Details

About this court

Pickleball at Montréal's Centre Gabrielle et Marcel Lapalme, QC (Canada), is offered through a publicly accessible facility on 5350 Rue Lafond that carries a solid 4.6 rating based on 200 Google reviews. The centre is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 9:30 PM and Saturday through Sunday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, providing one of the broader weekly availability windows among community centres in the area. Drop-in play is supported, lowering the barrier for players who prefer flexible scheduling over structured leagues. The facility is tagged as multi-sport, kid-friendly, and includes childcare and restrooms on-site — a practical combination for families looking to play while younger children are looked after. Conditions are rated good overall, and players note a clean, well-kept environment that suits casual and regular play alike. The wide range of programming available — spanning sports, arts, and community services — reflects a busy, well-used centre. One recurring point from visitors is that the gymnasium can get noticeably hot during summer months, as the space lacks air conditioning or fans. Players planning warm-weather sessions may want to schedule during cooler morning hours or bring extra hydration. Despite this, the centre's welcoming atmosphere and accessible public entry continue to draw a steady mix of families and recreational players to the courts.
