Where
Monument Valley Park

The city’s main public pickleball complex, in the south end of Monument Valley Park. Fifteen dedicated courts, lights, restrooms, water, and wheelchair access. Courts are free during hours of operation and first-come unless Parks has a permit on them. This is a place, not a club with a commissioner and a start time.

The city courts page does not publish a daily open-play hour or a clock time. A green flag in the lot means open. A red flag means closed. People make their own games.

Whoever is there. Bring a paddle. Rotate in.

Other free city pickleball: John Venezia Community Park has 8 courts and is marked lighted; Mid Shooks Run Park has 2. Same rules — free, first-come, unless a permit is on them. We are not listing those as separate clubs.

How to join

Walk on. If a permit sign or a red flag is up, those courts are not yours.
