    I could see this being a big problem with indoor tennis courts, but I’m not sure that would be a big deal outdoors, would it? Pretty much every outdoor public tennis court I’ve ever seen was just surrounded by a chain link fence.

    I can understand other objections, but that one doesn’t make much sense to me.

      The pickle-ball people in the article mention that one of the reasons that they want to use this court, is "our homes are right here.” So it depends on how close those homes are, and what’s between the courts and the houses.

      I like pickleball. It’s fun but best understood as human sized ping pong instead of mini-tennis. Imagine the table tennis sound a lot louder. I could imagine ignoring the sound if you like the sport but it grating on you otherwise.
