King Greenleaf Recreation Center

Court Details

About this court

King Greenleaf Recreation Center brings free indoor pickleball to Washington, DC, with 2 courts inside a public field house at 201 N Street SW — just a few blocks east of Arena Stage in the Southwest neighborhood. The facility is publicly accessible and carries a 4.1 Google rating across 220 reviews, reflecting a broadly positive community experience. Organized adult drop-in play (ages 25+) is scheduled every Tuesday from 6:00 to 8:00 PM with no fee required, and loaner paddles are available for those without equipment. Informal instruction is on offer as well, making it a practical entry point for players newer to the sport. General operating hours are Monday through Friday, 12:00–8:00 PM, and Saturday 9:00 AM–5:00 PM; the center is closed Sundays. Beyond pickleball, the facility includes a gym, computer lab, outdoor playground, and splash park — tags for restrooms, water access, and kid-friendly amenities reflect the center's broad recreational scope. Visitors frequently mention the clean, family-oriented environment and the attentive staff presence, while some reviewers note that reaching the center by phone can be unreliable. For scheduling questions or coordination, the designated contact is Paul Taylor at 202-645-7454, and volunteer site coordinator Frani Williams can be reached directly for pickleball-specific inquiries.
