Outdoor Venues in SF
San Francisco has a variety of outdoor locations for Pickleball play. There are 3 facilities with permanent nets – Goldman Tennis Center in Golden Gate Park (5 courts), Louis Sutter Playground in McLaren Park (6 courts) in the southeast part of the City, and Larsen Playground (8 courts) in the Sunset District. Presidio Wall has rolling nets and is the primary drop-in hub in the Northern part of the City. Goldman TC is the only facility with lights & is open from 7AM to 10 PM; reservations are required and court fees apply.
Sutter and Larsen both have all-day drop-in play. There may be certain open play hour restrictions at Presidio Wall, Rossi, Moscone or Stern Grove. Please check the specific court for schedule details. All have rolling nets so you don’t need to bring your own net.
Locations requiring reservations are booked on the SF Rec & Park Court Reservation System (https://sfrecpark.org/1591/Reservable-Pickleball-Courts). Reservations require a small fee, and can be reserved either 2 days or a week in advance. Reservations can be hard to book however, and hours and time-on-court are limited.
The multi-lined reservable courts are:
- Presidio Wall (up to 3 PB reservable)
- Rossi Playground (4 reservable on 1 tennis court)
- Upper Noe (2 PB Courts on 1 tennis court)
- Richmond Playground (2 PB courts)
- Crocker-Amazon (4 permanent-net courts)
A public venue opened downtown called East Cut Crossing has 5 courts in a neighborhood gathering center near downtown. It has food trucks and other sport features. Drop-in play only.
