INTEGRITY FLAG: official honolulu.gov/dpr/pickleball-courts/ page (198 courts at 96 parks) does NOT list Kilauea District Park among parks with pickleball courts. May not have pickleball currently. 2026-07-26: re-checked honolulu.gov/dpr/pickleball-courts/ directly (live fetch) — confirms the prior pass's finding that Kīlauea District Park is not among the 98 parks/198 courts on that page, BUT that page's own scope is specifically the DPR's outdoor court-conversion project (existing basketball/tennis/volleyball courts painted for pickleball), not indoor gym free-play — so its silence isn't dispositive for a gym-based listing. Found a City of Honolulu facility-directory reference (honolulu.gov gym/pool directory) giving a genuine city phone number for 'Kīlauea District Park Gym': 733-7356 — a different, more specific number than the general DPR line previously queued. A local news item (Kaimuki Hawaii, non-primary, not cited) describes DPR now posting indoor free-play/pickleball hours via a city booking system (pros.hnl.info), which did not return usable content to automated fetch today (JS-rendered, empty static body). Downgrading this from a likely-close integrity flag to a genuine phone-queue item: call 733-7356 to confirm indoor gym pickleball free-play actually runs there, rather than closing on the outdoor-courts page's silence alone. 2026-07-28: re-checked pros.hnl.info (still empty/JS-rendered, no usable content) and searched for an indoor-gym-specific honolulu.gov facilities page — found only third-party aggregators. No new primary source found, genuine dead end persists; phone-queued at 733-7356 (Kilauea District Park Gym) to confirm indoor free-play. 2026-08-02: found a new primary source — DPR's own 2026-07-16 press release (honolulu.gov/dpr/city-news/hidoe-city-formalize-agreement-regarding-kilauea-district-park-and-kaimuki-middle-school-property/) confirms the gym's official name, 'Tom T. Nekota Kīlauea Gym Complex,' and that DPR continues to manage/program it (existing recreational uses continuing under an HIDOE/City MOU) — useful for narrowing future searches, but the release itself doesn't name pickleball specifically, so it doesn't close the standing phone-queue item. WebSearch for the exact facility name still surfaces only banned aggregators (Pickleheads, Places2Play, Prescott/Courtsource pickleball directories) for schedule/court-count, none citable. Genuine dead end persists for a primary-source pickleball confirmation; stays phone-queued at 733-7356. 2026-08-03: fresh WebSearch for the facility's exact name still surfaces only banned aggregators (Pickleheads, Places2Play) for schedule/court info, none citable. No new primary source found, genuine dead end persists; stays phone-queued at 733-7356 (Kilauea District Park Gym). 2026-08-05: fresh WebSearch again surfaced only aggregators (Pickleheads, places2play, courtsource.us) for court count/hours -- none citable. No new primary source found, genuine dead end persists; stays phone-queued at 808-733-7356. 2026-08-06: re-fetched the DPR's own 2026-07-16 HIDOE/City press release directly -- confirms only the MOU/property-management arrangement, no mention of pickleball, court counts, hours, or schedule for the Nekota gym. pros.hnl.info still returns an empty JS-rendered shell. No new primary source found, genuine dead end persists; stays phone-queued at 808-733-7356.
