nAs Arlington’s population continues to grow and sports trends change, the Department of Parks and Recreation recognizes there has been a shift in the use and demand for outdoor athletic courts.
Our Outdoor Athletic Court Project includes creating criteria to identify existing courts that are candidates for permanent pickleball lines as well as identify an existing amenity to convert into a permanent pickleball facility.
As you may recall, we engaged with the community in the fall to learn more about the outdoor court utilization in Arlington: where people play, what sports they play and the amenities they look for. Here’s a link to an overview of what we learned in our first engagement; and here’s a link to the raw data from Arlington residents.
Based on community feedback, we were able to create criteria to help us determine the locations for multi-use courts and a dedicated pickleball facility. We’d like to share what we learned with you and get your feedback.
Please click here for a presentation about what we have learned so far and our draft criteria for developing pickleball courts in Arlington. At the end of the presentation, please share your thoughts.
