Centennial Hills Park Hosts Friday Morning Pickleball with Councilwoman Nancy Brune

“Come rally with neighbors, enjoy some friendly pickleball competition and connect with Ward 6 Councilwoman Nancy Brune,” the City of Las Vegas events calendar wrote about its “Friday Morning Pickleball” at Centennial Hills Park on Feb. 27, 2026. The city listing explicitly said “All ages and skill levels are welcome. Bring your own paddle and ball.” For event questions the calendar provided the contact 702.229.5463.

The City event carried the clear community-outreach framing but did not list a specific start or end time in the calendar excerpt; the entry used the title “Friday Morning Pickleball” without a posted hour. The city footer on the events page also included Las Vegas City Hall contact details at 495 S. Main St., Las Vegas, NV 89101 and a general phone number of (702) 229-6011, with TTY 7-1-1, indicating where additional logistical questions might be directed.

On the same calendar day, a separate grassroots session was listed by the Las Vegas Pickleball Meetup Group: “FRIDAY AFTERNOON PICKLEBALL at BOB BASKIN PARK! (NEAR THE STRIP),” hosted by Freddy L., with a Meetup time of 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM and the address 2801 W Oakey Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89102. That listing explicitly targeted more experienced players with the warning “THIS IS NOT A BRAND NEW PLAYER EVENT” and the recommendation “Brand Newbies join us Saturday at Durango Hills Park at 3p.” The Meetup copy also noted “PLAYERS SEPARATED BY SKILL LEVEL WITH PADDLE IN DEVICES IN EACH COURT!!” and closed its excerpt with “A few things to bring:” followed by a friendly “Hope to see you smiling on the opposite side of the net!”

The February 27 pair of listings illustrated how city-sponsored, all-ages outreach and skill-gated Meetup play coexist in Las Vegas. Local facility capacity feeds both approaches: Boulevard Pickle Ball advertises a 13,000 square foot indoor venue at Las Vegas Boulevard and Warm Spring Road with three full size PVC courts, weekday hours of 9am to 4pm and weekend hours of 5pm to 9pm, and the tagline “WE DINK INDOORS.” Public court inventory across the valley includes Sunset Park with 20 outdoor courts, Durango Hills with 7 outdoor courts, Plaza Hotel with 13 outdoor courts, Westgate with 8 outdoor courts, and multiple 3- and 4-court locations such as Stone Bridge, Bill Briare Park, Oak Leaf Park and Lone Mountain Park.

Recurring community play and tournaments add more choices. Vegaspbnetwork lists “Round Robin Pickleball in Las Vegas | Every Friday & Saturday | @ The PLAZA.” A past tournament example in the community calendar was Pickleball For A Purpose at Chicken N Pickle in Henderson on March 2, 2025, with a $45 player registration fee and registration details including clinic dates; that listing also showed skill brackets by DUPR ranges from recreational up to advanced.

February 27 therefore read like a snapshot of Las Vegas pickleball options: a city-backed morning rally tied to Ward 6 Councilwoman Nancy Brune with a BYO equipment note and a separately organized, advanced-skills afternoon session at Bob Baskin Park led by Meetup host Freddy L. Players seeking either open community play or competitive, skill-sorted courts had clearly defined choices that day across public parks and private indoor facilities.
