Waterford Park in Davie has a fresh new look, with six brand-new pickleball courts, two tennis courts, and a new asphalt trail among the upgrades on display when the Town of Davie cuts the ribbon on the overhauled park next Monday. The celebration is set for October 26, 2026, at the park located at 15090 S. Waterford Drive.

According to Miami’s Community News, the Town of Davie is inviting the community to celebrate and explore Waterford Park’s transformation at the ribbon-cutting. Beyond the new pickleball and tennis courts, the park now features resurfaced basketball courts and restored racquetball and volleyball courts, giving longtime neighborhood athletes a refreshed set of options.

What’s New Beyond The Courts

The upgrades extend well past the court surfaces. The outlet’s report details a new asphalt trail, upgraded LED lighting, reconstructed sidewalks, newly installed sod, upgraded site amenities, and a repaired irrigation system throughout the park grounds.

Town officials frame the project as part of a broader mission: the Town of Davie says it supports open spaces and recreation, and describes the park improvements as a way to enhance recreational amenities, accessibility, and the overall visitor experience for residents.

A Project Years In The Making

The scope of work traces back further than this week’s ceremony. Procurement records reviewed by procurement.opengov.com describe the effort as a full reconstruction involving demolition and removal of existing concrete, asphalt, and subsurface materials, clearing the way for two new tennis courts and six new pickleball courts.

The park also saw temporary weekday closures beginning October 13, 2025, to accommodate maintenance work, per the Town of Davie. A separate Town newsflash had projected that the renovation, which included the playground and shelter reconstruction along with the addition of six pickleball courts, would wrap up by summer 2026.

Separately, in July 2024, Davie issued an invitation to bid for asphalt trail repairs at miscellaneous locations.
