Redwood City
Red Morton Park is the one stop in Redwood City, but it's really two venues in one complex: four lighted outdoor courts anyone can walk onto, and three indoor courts in the Senior Center next door with a single weekly window. Across town, the Sequoia YMCA runs a small beginner-friendly indoor session twice a week, and Andrew Spinas Park and Stanford's Redwood City recreation center add two more options.
Where to play
Four lighted outdoor courts in a shared park complex that also has a skatepark, tennis courts, soccer fields, and basketball courts (Courts A–D). General pickleball open play runs Mon–Sat 8am–12pm and Sun 9am–1pm on all four courts, plus every day 4pm–8pm on Courts A & B only (until the game ends or after 15 minutes if others are waiting). Courts C & D switch to mixed pickleball/tennis use Mon–Sat 12pm–4pm and Sun 1pm–4pm (1-hour limit if others are waiting), and every day 4pm–8pm — Tennis Courts 1 & 2 are also available for pickleball during that midday mixed-use window. Tennis Courts 3 & 4 are tennis-only every day. Reservations go through the city's ActiveCommunities portal.
Reserve a court →A separate indoor venue in the Senior Center building, same park complex as the outdoor courts above — three courts, one weekly window (Wednesdays only), free to play.
Sequoia YMCA
Beginner-friendly2 indoor courts in Redwood City. Membership required to play. Contact Bonni Beer, 650-481-1207.
Andrew Spinas Park
Mixed levelsTwo free hard courts with permanent lines, walk-up and no reservation, lighted until 10pm — which makes this one of the few Redwood City options after dark. The nets are portable, so bring one if none is up.
Three indoor courts on a gym floor at Stanford's Redwood City campus. Open pickleball runs three windows a week — Tuesday 4–5:30pm, Wednesday noon–1:30pm, Friday 9:30–11am — first come, first served with no registration, unless a scheduled Open Rec activity or event has the floor. Membership covers open play; a separate 10-week recreational class is sold at different rates to students, staff and the wider community. Access runs through Stanford's community, not the general public.
Open pickleball times →- Red Morton's two venues, Andrew Spinas Park and the Sequoia YMCA are the full set of public pickleball in Redwood City — nothing was cut for space. Stanford's Redwood City campus is open to its own community only.
- The Red Morton Park outdoor courts and Senior Center indoor courts share a park complex but run on different schedules and fees — don't assume one covers the other.
- Bring your own paddle and ball to the outdoor courts — the park doesn't supply equipment.
