Court Details

About this court

Pickleball players in Willmar, Minnesota have a dedicated home at the Kandiyohi County Area Family YMCA, where 5 indoor courts in good condition are available to members year-round. Structured Open Play sessions run Monday evenings from 7:30–9:30 PM and every Tuesday and Thursday from 11:30 AM–1:30 PM, all accessible for a one-time annual fee of $20 on top of standard membership. A 20-person fall league also occupies Monday evenings from 6:30–7:30 PM through December, and while the league is currently full, subbing opportunities may arise for those interested in competitive play. The facility operates six days a week with early morning access starting at 5:00 AM on weekdays, tapering to 7:00 AM on weekends, giving players flexibility across a broad schedule. Beyond the courts, the YMCA functions as a true multi-sport hub in the United States' upper Midwest, featuring a fitness center, two indoor pools, locker rooms, restrooms, and kid-friendly amenities — all under one roof. Rated 4.3 out of 5 across 143 Google reviews, the YMCA earns consistent appreciation for its range of programming and family-oriented environment. Players note the convenience of having courts embedded within a full recreation facility, and parents mention the quality of youth programs like swimming instruction. Some members have flagged concerns about membership fee increases and communication around changes, so prospective pickleball players are encouraged to contact Troy Pederson at 320.222.9622 to confirm current pricing and session availability before visiting.
