Plese Flats

Situated along the Spokane River off North Aubrey L. White Parkway, Plese Flats offers outdoor tennis play within a scenic, parkside setting. The facility features standard asphalt hard courts framed by tall pine trees, providing natural windbreaks and intermittent morning shade. Local players gather here for casual singles and doubles rallies, taking advantage of the quiet setting removed from downtown traffic. The courts operate primarily on an open-access, first-come, first-served basis common to Spokane's municipal and river-corridor recreational spaces. Regular maintenance keeps the hardcourt surfaces playable through the spring, summer, and early autumn months. Because there are no floodlights, match schedules revolve around natural daylight, peaking during late afternoon sessions. It is an unpretentious, straightforward venue where Spokane tennis enthusiasts can focus purely on stroke play, baseline drills, and friendly weekend competition against a backdrop of native riverbank landscape.
