Reserve a Court at Willis Park

Avondale Estates uses Reserve My Court to manage the city's tennis courts with a user-friendly interface and a secure way to maintain records, schedules and histories.

The web-based app requires users to sign up for a free account. Once registered, users will find a variety of features that can be used to make, update and cancel reservations, create teams, communicate with other teammates or opponents, and receive updates in the event of maintenance delays or closures. Additionally, the app prevents double bookings and creates a wait list when needed. Families can use the same account, as the app allows someone to add additional users to his or her account. Frequent users can download the Reserve My Court app from the Apple or Google stores or continue to utilize the web-based interface.

Once registered, users must enter their home address, whether they live inside or outside the city, to access a pull-down list of nearby clubs and facilities. To use the city's tennis courts, connect to "Avondale Estates Public Courts." This dashboard provides access to all available features for reserving a court for tennis or pickleball.
