Court types and seasonal access
Four dedicated courts are listed at Bayview Hill and two at King’s College. Town, Grovewood, Morgan Boyle, Oak Ridges Lions and Russell Farm use dual-purpose tennis and pickleball courts. The full eight-site list includes the seasonal Richmond Green pop-up.
Richmond Green courts run from 8 a.m. to dusk and are scheduled to close October 22 in the reviewed 2026 notice. Nets are supplied, but the city does not supply balls or racquets. Quieter Green Zone paddles are encouraged.
Resident sessions and reserving a court
King’s College is resident-only Monday and Thursday 5-9 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday 8 a.m.-noon. Players may need proof of Richmond Hill residence during those sessions. Those rules do not create a citywide resident-only restriction.
Bayview Hill court 4 can be booked in one-hour blocks, noon-9 p.m.; courts 1-3 remain drop-in. ActiveRH permits open two weeks ahead for residents and one week ahead for non-residents. Permits are non-refundable even for bad weather.
Fair outdoor and indoor play
Warm-up is limited to three minutes. Outdoor games finish at 11, without a tiebreaker. If no game is underway, the maximum court stay is 15 minutes. Use the paddle rack or line, announce scores, and wait outside the fence.
Indoor sessions use staff-assigned courts and a different normal scoring cap of 9. Sunday indoor sessions are skill-specific, and players should register only for the appropriate one. A ball entering another court means stop play and replay the affected point.
