Greenbank Park

Court Details

About this court

Located at Greenbank Rd and Newport Gap Pike in Wilmington, Delaware, Greenbank Park provides 4 outdoor pickleball courts that are free to access and open daily from 8:00 AM to 10:30 PM, making it one of the more accessible public options in New Castle County. The courts are painted onto an existing tennis court (court No. 4), feature dedicated lines and sports lighting for night play, and sit within a multi-sport complex that also includes tennis, basketball, and baseball facilities. Court No. 4 is shared with tennis on a first-come, first-served basis, while courts 1–3 are reserved by a local tennis club on Tuesdays. Organized open play is scheduled Wednesday evenings from 7–9 PM and Saturday mornings at 9 AM, shifting to 8 AM during the hotter summer months, with any donation toward balls appreciated. Amenities include shaded parking and portable restrooms on-site. Rated 4.4 out of 5 across 146 Google reviews, the park draws a range of visitors beyond pickleball — players mention the multi-sport layout and generally peaceful atmosphere. Reviewers do flag that the pickleball surface can be uneven and persistently dusty, and traffic noise from nearby roads is a regular backdrop. That said, visitors consistently highlight the sports lighting as a genuine asset for evening play in the off-season. A few practical notes before you go: nets and balls are not provided, so players must bring their own, and a folding chair and plenty of water are strongly advised. Contact Peg and Tim Hinkle at 302-635-1707 for more information on organized sessions.
