Background
As pickleball continues to grow in popularity across Fairfax County, the Park Authority is exploring ways to enhance recreational offerings and provide additional facilities. The Park Authority welcomes public comment on the proposed addition of three dedicated pickleball courts at Greenbriar Park, located at 4600 Stringfellow Road in Fairfax, until 5:00 p.m. on Friday, June 13, 2025.
Proposed Concept
The proposal recommends removing the dual-use pickleball lines at Chalet Woods Park and constructing three dedicated pickleball courts at Greenbriar Park. After evaluating multiple options to address the growing demand for pickleball in the area, the Park Authority identified this plan as the most effective solution for the following reasons:
It addresses community noise concerns related to pickleball play at Chalet Woods Park.
Greenbriar Park is conveniently located just a 10-minute drive from Chalet Woods Park.
Dedicated courts at Greenbriar Park will reduce competition between tennis and pickleball players, unlike shared-use courts.
Greenbriar Park is better equipped for pickleball facilities, offering ample parking, restroom access, and a greater buffer from nearby residences, consistent with findings from the Pickleball Study.
Weather depending, construction is expected to conclude by Fall 2025.
