I stopped by for 2 hours of open play Pickleball on a Saturday afternoon. I was visiting friends…read morethat live in the area and they booked our reservation and we were good to go. The staff in the pro shop were very friendly. Shout out to Doug for taking care of us. The shop is stocked with all the latest and greatest paddles, clothing and accessories. There were 7 pickleball courts available for open play during our visit. We played on the 4 courts in front of the pro shop. 2 courts per fenced area with no divider between the courts. Balls will roll onto your court during play, but you knew that anyway. The courts were in great shape as well as the nets. There's covered/shaded seating in this area as you wait for your next game. All the players we played with were very friendly and helpful with explaining how to paddle in for the next game. I hope they're able to open more courts in the future. Regardless, I had a good first visit and I'd play here again if I'm in the neighborhood. Enjoy...

I visited Bobby Riggs for open play and must say that this is a pretty nice facility. However, upon…read morearrival found that the parking situation is not great. There is only a small dedicated lot and street parking. It doesn't help that people camp out in the lot waiting for a spot which blocks the flow of traffic. But parking on the street wasn't too difficult. Check in for open play is in the pro shop which has an excellent variety of all things pickleball including paddles that you can demo for $10. You also need to pay then and there (I wish there was a way to sign up online). It looks like the facility is being remodeled so there were only 4 courts near the pro shop for more advanced, then 2 courts for intermediate. The courts are in very good condition with wind screens and convenient rest areas in the middle. Altogether I had a pretty good time and everyone I encountered was friendly.

This review is for Ted - a literal human angel…read more Ted, the park attendant in the RV in the corner of the lot, rescued a dog that I had lost while dogsitting for the first time for some new friends. When I arrived at his RV after the owner told me Kemba had been found there, Kemba was sitting in his lap, recieving some calming pats on her head after a very stressful last 90 minutes of wandering away and being found shivering in a bathroom stall. On top of the stress and frustration at myself for allowing that to happen, I comforted by Ted's warmth towards her upon her discovery, and by his warm, sincerely helpful demeanor that he demonstrated while explaining the story to me - the embarrassed and stressed dog sitter who had made a mistake. I so appreciate Ted's presence at Cottonwood Park. He said he helps with a lot of conflict resolutions in the parking lot, which I really respect, because I used to do conflict resolution for over 4 years in courts and interpersonally. I didn't tell him that, but I felt his grounded, service-oriented presence and quiet contributions that he likely makes to everyone who passes through. Thanks so much for your help - and for helping Kemba, who is now snuggled up next to my leg under a blanket

Our team hosts matches there.

This review is mainly for the facility, pickleball courts, and playing conditions…read more I came here to play league pickleball as a guest of one of the club's members. The Rancho Santa Fe Tennis Club is a private membership-only club (for people who live in the community). The facility is beautiful (with great clubhouse and accommodations) but dated. They do have a nice golf course and tennis courts. There are 4 Pickleball courts to accommodate the latest craze and demands. The courts are nice/clean but need to be resurfaced. There were a few small cracks/holes on some courts. Too bad that they don't have lights due to the strict ordinance in the area. Very hard to play at twilight. Also, half of the courts have shadows due to the surrounding trees which makes it hard to see the ball when it travels from light to shadow. Overall, l was not impressed with the playing condition but was happy that our team got the dub.

Tony really took the time to understand my play style and gave honest, thoughtful recommendations -- not just a sales pitch.

If you're looking for someone who actually listens and knows tennis inside out, Tony's your guy. Thanks again!

He has designed my game, starting from a person who had taken countless lessons but never gotten anywhere to a person who is winning sectionals with teams and winning leagues as a singles player. He's an expert in how to play tennis with the legs using the athletic stance. He has excellent technical knowledge of all aspects of the game. He is present on the court and puts his energy and focus into helping me shape my game. He's an incredible athlete, skilled tennis player, and passionate educator and these traits translate into his ability to coach others. I highly recommend SDTC and Juan to anyone who wants to excel at their game.

The few times I've been here has been enjoyable and everyone (including dogs) have been very amicable. The dog park is very well kept and like how they have some little obstacles courses for the dogs. The pickleball courts are also very nice but there are some areas that have been worn out, mostly behind the baseline. But nice seating area and efficient paddle system to rotate people in and out. I only wish it was closer to me.
