Where are Delray's public tennis courts?

For those of us who like tennis, finding a park with tennis courts is not easy. Up north nearly every park includes several tennis courts.

Granted some communities have tennis courts. And there are beautiful facilities at the Delray Beach Tennis Center and the Swim and Tennis Club in Delray Beach. But it gets expensive to play there.

Delray has spent millions of dollars building upgrading and building new parks. Why not add tennis courts to some of them instead of always adding a playground…many playgrounds are in areas where very few children live.

How about asking residents who live near parks being built or upgraded what features they'd most like to see installed? I imagine the people who pay for these parks would like some say about what's going in them.

Listed below are some places in our area where you can currently play tennis at no charge:


Caloosa Park
1300 S.W. 35th Ave., Boynton Beach

South County Regional Park
11200 Park Access Road, Boca Raton

Veterans Park
9400 W. Palmetto Park Road, Boca Raton
