Pickleball is such a stupid sport. But stop voting for pols who support building the courts next to you if you hate it so much.

Move to Winchester or Prince William

I think the better answer is to look to convert indoor space. Building courts works for right now but who is to say that in 5 years pickeball won't fall out of favor.


Yup.

We have a pickleball court near us. We only have street parking. And yes, no one owns the street, but I cannot get over how AWFULLY most of the (mostly boomer) pickleballers park. They leave absurd amounts of spaces between their cars and waste so much space. Or just enough that another car can't fit in between. It's so obnoxious. Indoor spaces is the answer.

Courthouse has pickelball? That's news to me. Perhaps you're confusing it with tennis.

Pickleball is played on a court, not on a field. Perhaps OP is confused.

Are there any outdoor pickeball courts in courthouse? The county's website seems to suggest the answer is no...

Can we stop building these god damn fields? What is the point of our elected officials and planning commitee building them? Some of them are overrun at night by wildlife and the homeless use them as encampments. One of them even smelled like urine. The one over by Court House.
