About

A public rec center court in the Van Ness neighborhood of Downtown LA, part of a busy city park with a pool, playground, and ball fields alongside the tennis courts. It's a casual, walk-up spot for a hit rather than a polished club — good for locals looking for a free game close to home.

Courts & conditions

Two outdoor hard courts with lights for evening play.

Good to know

No reservation system — courts are used on a walk-in, public-court-etiquette basis. Open Monday–Friday 10:30am–9:00pm and Saturday 9:30am–5:00pm; closed Sunday. The park also has a children's play area, picnic tables, and restrooms.
