[quote=Anonymous]Our kids and friends use those courts all the time.
When we joined the gym, there were two full size courts. 
Then, they had converted one court for pickleball, and left one for basketball. This made sense, as old people could play pickleball during the day when no one is really playing basketball.

When our kids go, the basketball court is very crowded, and there are 2-4 seniors playing pickleball.

Now they are ripping up both courts and the rock climbing wall, and putting in a zillion permanent pickle ball courts. 
Putting aside the bizarre decision to take away actual sports (rock climbing and basketball) and put in an "activity"--where can we join instead where our kids can play? Obviously they think they will make more money off old people than families (they are also getting rid of birthday parties and kids camps as they used the basketball court for those)

They said we could transfer our membership to two far-away gyms that still have half basketball/half pickleball, but those are a higher tier gym and we would have to pay more $100+ more per month and drive there. Gainesville/Reston are long drives.

Does anyone know any other gyms with indoor courts in the Centreville/Herndon area? Nzone is difficult because when kids are out of school, their courts are usually rented to leagues.
