Pickleball in Yuma, Arizona
Yuma has four public outdoor courts at Ray Kroc Sports Complex and an indoor gym option at the Yuma Readiness and Community Center. The City does not currently publish a recurring pickleball open-play schedule, while several RV resorts run seasonal club programs with access limited to their guests or residents.
Pickleball Courts in Yuma
Ray Kroc Sports Complex
Address: 1280 W. Desert Hills Drive, Yuma, AZ 85365
The City converted a former exhibition tennis court into four standard outdoor pickleball courts beside the Desert Sun Tennis Courts and Yuma Civic Center. The current facility page is the best source for park status. These courts provide public access, but an open court does not mean organized play will be underway.
Yuma Readiness and Community Center
Address: 6550 E. 24th Street, Yuma, AZ 85365
The City facility listing confirms a large multipurpose drill hall used as a gym for recreation. Recent court directories report four indoor wood courts with taped lines and portable nets, but the City’s earlier drop-in listing is closed and no current recurring time is verified. Call Parks and Recreation at 928-373-5200 before relying on indoor access.
The Palms RV Resort
Address: 3400 S. Avenue 7 E, Yuma, AZ 85365
The Palms has eight lighted courts and an active resort club. Its page still shows the 2025–26 season schedule, so do not treat those Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday hours as current. Call 928-341-4646 to confirm guest eligibility and the new season schedule.
Pickleball Lessons in Yuma
The Palms offered a weekly beginner course during its 2025–26 season, but a current 2026–27 date is not posted. A registered resort guest should call and ask for the next beginner course before arriving. Other new players can use pickleball coaches serving Yuma and arrange a first lesson at Ray Kroc; indoor community-center play should only be planned after the City confirms a current gym session.
Yuma Pickleball Open Play and Events
No current recurring City open play, league, or upcoming public tournament is verified. The Palms previously scheduled club play and monthly resort tournaments, but its published season has ended and access is not generally public. Use pickleball announcements for confirmed future dates and verify resort events directly rather than relying on last season’s calendar.
How Visitors Can Find a Game
Visitors with partners can use the public Ray Kroc courts and should bring paddles, balls, water, and sun protection. A solo visitor should contact local pickleball clubs and groups before arrival and arrange a time at Ray Kroc, because no public drop-in session currently guarantees opponents. Registered RV-resort guests should call their property’s pickleball club for the current seasonal schedule; other visitors should not assume resort access.
