Hundreds of courts.
For the people,
by the players.
The DMV's grassroots court register. The stuff no parks website will tell you: whether the lights actually turn on, which lots fill by 9, which gym changed its schedule this week without telling anyone.

The register
270 OF 270 IN THE DATABASEHOW STATUS WORKS — EVERY LOCATION CLIMBS THREE RUNGS: LISTED ○ (FROM AN OFFICIAL PARKS SOURCE OR PLAYER-ADDED), PLAYER-REPORTED (SOMEONE RATED OR FILED NOTES), VERIFIED ON FOOT (A HUMAN WALKED IT AND CHECKED THE DETAILS). 268 OF 270 STILL AWAIT A SITE VISIT. RESTROOM AND PARKING FIELDS STAY BLANK UNTIL SOMEONE CHECKS — WE DON'T GUESS.
Do your court's lights work, and how late? Sixty seconds settles one.

Local knowledge
THE STUFF NO PARKS WEBSITE TELLS YOU — VERIFIED BY PLAYER VOTESWinter schedule from the center's Nov 1 bulletin: drop-in pickleball Thursdays 6 to 9pm, plus Saturdays 8am to 12pm from Nov 21 through March 13. Center closed Nov 11 (Veterans Day) and Nov 25 to 26, so no Thursday session Thanksgiving week.
The indoor court was resurfaced and pickleball lines have not been repainted yet (as of late October). The neighborhood WhatsApp group meets 8:30 to 10am Mondays and Wednesdays, free.
These are two tennis courts that have pickleball lines and mobile nets to use on each side of each tennis court. Located in a small park away from the street. No lights. Lots of leaves on the courts and the lines are a dark, but they were open and we were able to play. Nets are sagging.
