CERRITOS, CA – May 13, 2025 – Pickleball enthusiasts now have access to eight new courts at Liberty Park in Cerritos, following a ribbon cutting by the Cerritos City Council on May 12.
Two new dual-use courts were unveiled, with each allowing for conversion from one tennis court to four pickleball courts. The City Council directed the change in April in response to requests from Cerritos residents for additional pickleball courts. Pickleball has seen a dramatic rise in play and demand for space locally.
“I want to commend the Parks and Recreation Commission for its recommendations, and the City’s Recreation Services and Engineering Divisions for their quick turnaround on this project in order to accommodate our residents,” said Mayor Frank Aurelio Yokoyama. “Cerritos has a beautiful parks system, and the City Council and our staff take pride in not only maintaining these venues but ensuring they offer robust amenities.”
With the opening of eight new courts, patrons at Liberty Park now have 13 pickleball courts to choose from, and a total of 23 outdoor courts across the City of Cerritos. Ten courts are located at Los Angeles County’s Don Knabe Community Regional Park. Pickleball is also offered on a drop-in basis from 2 to 6 p.m. on Sundays at the Community Gymnasium at Whitney High School.
The new courts are available for use on a drop-in, first-come, first-served basis unless otherwise designated for a City special event, program, or activity. Courts are dual-use and intended for pickleball or tennis play only. They are open to the public Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the fall and winter and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. in the spring and summer. Court time is limited to one game to 11 points if other players are waiting.
Liberty Park is located at 19211 Studebaker Road.
