Lynette Woodard Recreation Center

Named after the Wichita basketball legend and Olympic gold medalist, the Lynette Woodard Recreation Center serves as an active neighborhood sports hub in northeast Wichita. Managed by the City of Wichita Park & Recreation department, the complex features dedicated outdoor hard tennis courts suited for recreational rallies, drills, and match play. The asphalt surfaces feature standard court markings and perimeter fencing, offering a dependable platform for local players and families. Court access operates primarily on a welcoming first-come, first-served basis, alongside structured seasonal recreation activities organized by the city. The atmosphere is unpretentious and community-driven, drawing residents from across the neighborhood for morning practices, weekend sets, and casual hitting sessions. Positioned alongside the multi-purpose community center and adjacent parkland, it provides an accessible local venue for maintaining an active tennis routine.
