Frick Park Clay Courts

Frick Park Clay Courts offer a rare opportunity to play on authentic red clay in Pittsburgh. Established in 1930 at the edge of Regent Square and Point Breeze, this public tennis facility features six classic red clay courts maintained through a partnership between CitiParks and the Frick Park Clay Court Tennis Club. The crushed brick surface delivers a true slow-court bounce and forgiving slides that preserve joints during long rallies. The atmosphere reflects Pittsburgh's dedicated tennis community, bringing together local league competitors, casual morning hitters, and seasonal permit holders. Because clay requires meticulous care, courts are swept and lined by players after each session, and play depends on weather conditions from late spring through mid-autumn. Players can access the courts through seasonal club memberships or pay-per-play day passes booked through the club's reservation portal. Surrounded by mature trees, the facility provides an unpretentious, traditional tennis experience rooted in city history.
