What players say Mostly critical
Players say the Lucille Ferrier Tennis Courts consist of nine outdoor courts divided into three sections, but the playing surface is generally in poor condition with widespread cracks, weeds, and worn paint.

Despite the deterioration, some players find the courts playable, especially for casual or beginner use, though the environment can occasionally be disruptive.
