Parkside Square Tennis Courts: Booking, Lights and Tips

Updated October 2026. Tennis City SF › Tennis Courts in Parkside

Parkside Square at 28th Avenue and Vicente Street has 4 tennis courts, all reservable on rec.us for $5 per court per hour, and the same surface is also booked as 8 pickleball courts. There are no lights, but there are restrooms.

Where the courts are

Rec.us lists the address as 2680 28th Ave and places the courts on the east side of the park, entered via Vicente Street or 26th Avenue. Rec & Park describes Parkside Square as a 7.5-acre recreation complex that borders Stern Grove, with newly renovated tennis courts, a basketball court and a baseball field. Rec & Park says the playground is closed from July 27 to late November 2026 for resurfacing; the notice does not mention the tennis courts.
