Why UDC does not offer admittance on generally to the public or, at least, on a registration basis (possibly for a small annual fee) is beyond me. I understand that priority should go to UDC students, but surely someone can come up with a more creative & better solution than simply locking up these five lovely courts so that no one can use them. For shame!

I went to a public university, and our tennis courts were available to the public. The tennis team reserved spots when they needed them, they didn't have them sit empty so residents couldn't enjoy them. They charge $250/year if you to pay to play on their courts. That's great if you're wealthy enough to pay $1,000 every 4 years, but it's sad when public courts can only be used by the wealthy.

It has restrooms and a The splash park is full of not-bad plastic toys (cars, things people drop off at the park) which are not even broken, unlike most parks around here. This is a really nice thing for kids, but what makes it better is that the splashing isn't huge. It's just the right amount of water for a toddler. The play structures are also the perfect toddler size as well. And the entire place is fenced in with multiple rounds of fencing. There is so much fencing that many of the nannies are not interested in even closing the toddler park fence. For me this is a place I can relax as a parent. There's almost nothing that can harm my kids here, except for the yucky goldfish and cheerios from the other kids, ha ha. The patrons are what you would expect: extreme helicopter parents and nannies. They are more high strung than most, but hey that's what you get with the neighborhood. All in all, this place was amazing and I look forward to coming back.

It was pretty quiet (just nannies and a few kids) until the private schools let out and kids in Gucci shoes followed by moms in neon colored Chanel boots showed up and it became quite crowded. We left not too long after this because a few of these unruly children who were not being watched by their moms repeatedly tried to bully my 2 year old out of the sand area. Before these children arrived, we had a great time with the various slides and toys left behind in the sand. There's lots of open space, tennis courts, and a separate section for older kids. Parking is on the street and highly coveted. I noticed many cars circling on our way out. It looks like there's a splash pad here as well.
