Arlington Pickleball Court Expansion: Arlington is preparing to add new pickleball courts at the Arlington Tennis Center on Memphis-Arlington Road after a unanimous vote by the Arlington Board of Mayor and Aldermen on September 2. The decision comes as demand for the sport continues to rise in the community.
Planning the Expansion
The approved plan begins the process of designing new courts at the popular tennis site. The project may also include expanding tennis facilities to accommodate growing use.
Mayor Mike Wissman noted that the request for pickleball courts has been among the top priorities shared by residents over the last several years.
Responding to Community Demand
With no current public pickleball courts in Arlington, players have had limited options to enjoy one of the nation’s fastest-growing sports. Officials see this project as a way to meet the needs of residents while also adding a new recreation option for all ages.
Looking Ahead
The approval marks only the first step, with design and planning to follow before construction begins. Town leaders hope the addition will strengthen Arlington’s recreation offerings and give the community a new, long-awaited place to play pickleball.
