Pickleball courts added next to Lake Nokomis rec center

Six new outdoor pickleball courts are open next to the Lake Nokomis Community Center. These courts are the first dedicated pickleball courts in the Minneapolis park system.
A celebration was held on Wednesday, July 12 to commemorate the new courts opening. Following a short pickleball overview from a local pickleball instructor, there was a friendly tournament featuring local elected officials.
The courts are located next to the recreation center at 2401 E Minnehaha Parkway. They are free and open to all on a first-come, first-served basis, dawn-dusk daily, unless there are scheduled lessons or leagues. Currently the Nokomis courts host lessons on Thursdays, 9-11 a.m. through mid-August.
