Tennis, Anyone?
And lighted courts. I never understand why public courts don't have lights. Even the ones that you throw in a couple quarters, and they stay on for an hour. That way they're paid for, and the city can make sure they don't turn on after a certain hour (10pm or something) for neighbors. A great place to start (atleast for me) would be the PB Recreation Center. I don't think there's lights to play at night, and they're covered in bird poop. It looks like there is room for another two, maybe four courts right next to the existing courts, unless they belong to the Middle School. There is also a huge plot of land next to the softball fields that could be turned into tennis courts. Speaking of which, Re: Scipio's comment, how many giant softball / baseball fields have you seen empty when you're trying to get a tennis court? Now that's frustrating.— January 15, 2010 7:29 a.m.
Tennis, Anyone?
Avilability and maintenance are two problems I see all the time. There are very few courts in the area, and the ones that exist are not being maintained. Considering how many parks there are in the area, I feel like I should be able to get a court whenever I have the urge to play. A nice clean and even surface to play on, in a public park, should be more of a priority. I grew up in a much smaller town than San Diego, and I can remember getting a court whenever I wanted. I also grew up learning how to hit against a wall, and I'd like to see more of them too!— January 15, 2010 7:13 a.m.
