Several City of Longmont park amenities are reopening with the following requirements in place for public health and safety:

• If you feel sick or have flu-like symptoms, please do not visit parks or use park amenities.
• Individuals using reopened amenities must follow general guidelines for parks usage, including maintaining six-foot social distancing and having face coverings available for when social distancing may not be possible.
• It is impossible to guarantee a risk-free experience; use of park amenities is at your own risk. Visitors are encouraged to bring hand sanitizer and wipes.
• No more than 10 individuals may be in a court area or wheels park at any one time. If there are already 10 people using the amenity, visitors are asked to return at a less busy time. Do not congregate around the facilities.

These regulations are in alignment with Gov. Jared Polis’ Safer at Home Order and Boulder County Public Health guidelines. (The City of Longmont is following Boulder County Public Health guidelines within city limits, including those portions within Weld County.)

Specific amenities may have additional requirements for their safe use. See below for all opening information and requirements at this time.

Tennis and Pickleball Courts

Tennis and pickleball courts are open for singles play. Doubles play is only allowed if team members are from the same household.

Courts cannot be reserved. Tournament and league play is not available at this time.

Additional safety requirements:

• Players are encouraged to bring their own balls, labeled with their names or other distinctive markings.
  • On their serves, players should use their own balls for play.
  • After players serve, their tennis balls should be returned to them without being touched by other players. This may include passing using the racquet, kicking or some other non-touch method.
  • Visit the United States Tennis Association (USTA) website for more guidelines on making your game safer.
