Court Details

About this court

Pickleball at the Jack Laugher Centre in North Yorkshire, England, is part of a well-rounded multi-sport public facility on Dallamires Lane, operating in good condition and open to all on a pay-to-play basis. The centre runs weekdays from 6:30 AM to 9:00 PM and weekends from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, offering consistent access throughout the week. With a Google rating of 4.2 from 221 reviews, it draws a broad cross-section of the local community. The GB-based venue is housed in a historically notable 1905 building, and its amenity list extends well beyond the courts — visitors have access to a fitness centre, swimming pool, wood sauna, locker rooms, showers, and food and drinks on site. Lessons are available, which players looking to build skills will find useful alongside regular play sessions. Visitor sentiment across reviews is mixed but leans positive. Players note that staff are generally friendly and the pool and changing areas are kept clean. Some visitors mention strong value in the combined membership offering access to the gym, pool, and sauna. However, others raise concerns about session cancellations affecting general swim and court access, as well as occasional maintenance issues. The facility's broad range of tags — including restrooms, water, and multi-sport access — reflects its community leisure centre positioning rather than a dedicated pickleball destination, but it remains a convenient and accessible option for players in the North Yorkshire area.
