In addition to the Battleground on campus, Kenmore Park has eight courts and is within 1 mile of our facility. Kenmore is a public park and we do NOT have these courts reserved. From the Battleground facility, turn right onto Hanover Street. Go 1 block and turn left onto College Ave. Go one block to the stop light and turn right onto William St. Go very short distance and turn left onto Kenmore. Go less than a mile and Kenmore courts are on the right.
If indoor courts are open and available, you may sign up at the front desk for tournament rate of $10 per court hour.
The indoor courts do not open until 9 AM on Sat. and 11 AM on Sunday.
