Boise Plans Major Pickleball Court Expansion | Boise News

Boise is set to triple its pickleball courts over five years, jumping from 14 to 46, after legal issues removed 12 courts and left the sport struggling for space. Driven by a passionate community and soaring demand, the city plans to convert tennis courts and build new facilities at four key locations—while carefully managing noise complaints. Dedicated pickleball courts, not dual-use, are the clear preference, and local clubs may partner with the city. Costs could run $125K–$150K per converted court and nearly $1.2M for a new 12-court facility, funded by impact fees and donations. If approved, the city’s court mix will flip from 80% tennis to nearly 50-50—pending review by the parks commission in September.
