Southern Community Park is one of the Triangles largest public pickleball destinations with 11 dedicated courts in southern Chapel Hill. The park spans 70 acres and includes a dog park, playground, basketball courts, and miles of trails — making it a full-day destination for families. The pickleball courts are lighted for evening play and have become a gathering spot for the Chapel Hill pickleball community.

Players of all levels show up for open play, and the courts are busy on weekends. Reviewers note the well-maintained surfaces and generous parking. Court use is free on a first-come basis.
