Orange Grove Park — Attraction in South Pasadena

I feel so fortunate to have found this park--normally we drive by public spaces like this and don't give it a 2nd thought. Luckily, we walked by the courts on a weekend walk and found that in addition to the baseball diamond there are 2 tennis courts as well as 8 lined pickleball courts (each tennis court accommodates 4 pickleball courts). First come-1st served (for an hour). The tennis/pickleball courts are reserved on Tuesday mornings, Wednesday afternoons, and Saturday mornings.

My friends and I come here for Pickleball ball every week. They have 2 tennis courts with nets but the Pickleball courts are drawn in and you have to bring your own nets. Parking is free but it's all street parking and can be a bit harder to find if it's crowded.

I see many people with their dogs in the grass field but just know that the gates aren't enclosed. Overall, it's a great little park in the middle of the suburbs....
