Pickleball Facility at Bill Noble Park
ASBA Outstanding Outdoor Pickleball Facility of the Year
SURFACE: Plexipave
CERTIFIED TENNIS COURT BUILDER: Linn Lower
COMPLETED: March 2023
The City of Gardendale decided to completely rebuild its park facility and also install a new 11-court pickleball facility due to demand for the sport. The new pickleball complex is next to the existing tennis courts (which also were renovated), sharing a social room and restrooms. The pickleball facility was designed with generous areas between and behind the courts for observation and socializing. A stadium court was installed with concrete tiered seating on three sides. Since the entire park was being renovated, construction of the pickleball courts was constantly interrupted and delayed to accommodate work elsewhere. Yet the result is a venue ideal for both recreational and tournament use.
