Thayer Sports Center

Court Details

About this court

Pickleball seekers in Braintree, MA will find Thayer Sports Center—a public, pay-to-play multi-sport facility at 1515 Washington Street—operating on an expansive daily schedule, opening at 6:00 AM every day of the week and staying open until midnight Monday through Friday, and until 11:00 PM on Saturday and Sunday. The facility includes restrooms and locker rooms, and its multi-sport designation suggests shared use across several athletic programs. However, no confirmed indoor or outdoor pickleball court count is currently on record for this location, and the facility's condition is listed as needs work, making it worth a call ahead before making the trip. With a Google rating of 3.9 stars across 90 reviews, player sentiment at Thayer is decidedly mixed. Some visitors highlight specific areas of the complex—particularly the ice rink side—as well-maintained and spacious, with players noting large locker rooms and quality ice conditions. Others, however, raise concerns about cleanliness in restroom areas, the state of court flooring, and a lack of spectator seating in the gym areas. For pickleball players specifically, confirming court conditions and availability directly with the facility before visiting is strongly recommended given the current needs-work designation.
