Over at these two locations it pretty close to 1/5 mile from housing, plus square noise also. Lights on the tennis courts go out at 10 or 1030 PM if I remember correctly? We both know there not going to do anything extra that don’t have the word golf in it anyway |

I agree both bowling alley are pretty busy. But, that’s big bucks? Speaking of bowling the pros will be back to spainish springs around March 22nd. I went last year and seen Pete Weber, Parker Bohn, norm duke, Walter Ray Williams, and more. |

Golf courses set empty also, but not reducing them are they, or stop spending loads money them like replacing sand traps that were better here than private or city courses elsewhere. You can make that point about every amenities at certain time of the day.

In your opinion we need more pickleball courts. I ask, is is harder to get a court to play pickleball this January? Is the wait longer than it was a year ago?

The next pickle ball courts will be at River Bend rec center and Everglades rec center, both currently under construction. They build them ahead of the residents, so the Fenney courts were built and open as Fenney was opening, no more needed until more growth happens.
If you want more courts north of SR44 then you have to convince the AAC and PWAC to built them. The developer is done building amenities north of SR44 and owes none of us anything (yes, what your realtor told you was a lie). If PWAC/AAC agrees to build them then prepare to pay more for your monthly amenities fees as nothing is free. You'll be hard pressed to win the argument that more courts are needed. Yes, it may be difficult to get court time between 8:00AM and 11:00AM, but in the afternoons I have passed a great many that our empty, play then.

I understand that the Developer constructs the courts and thus never suggested in my comments anything about new courts above 44. Two years have gone by before additional courts can be used while TV population has increased by how many thousands of people in those years? From my prospective as a pickleball player and enthusiast, they are a little bit behind the curve. Those that play pickleball can clearly understand why courts are most active during certain times of the day. I don’t play golf but am happy to support those that enjoy playing that game and am happy to see them continue to build golf courses. |

Capacity and usage must vary by village
I can't speak to your specific location, but I travel all over the Villages on a frequent basis and I see Pickleball, bocce ball, tennis, and shuffleboard courts wide open with great frequency. I have never had to wait to play Pickleball.

Were the six new courts at Fenney enough to cover two years worth of new pickleballers? I don't think so. They may be ahead for a time depending on when the announced new courts can be used and what increases in TV population take place before other additional courts are needed. A never ending game to stay ahead or keep up. Last edited by twoplanekid; 01-07-2019 at 11:04 AM. |
