Brandywine Youth Club
Court count pending · Glen Mills, PA
The Garnet Valley Gherkins Pickleball Club (a 501c3 organizing pickleball at this Concord Township complex) confirms courts at the O'Donoghue Field House / Brandywine Youth Club site: outdoor courts converted from the old Garnet Valley High School tennis courts, plus indoor play at the O'Donoghue Fieldhouse. Concord Township's own municipal-complex page (43 S. Thornton Rd, same complex) also lists "Pickleball Courts" among its amenities alongside the Brandywine Youth Club field house. Access is coordinated via Court Reserve registration with Concord Township residents prioritized; exact court count not published by either primary source. Note: the lead-list's separate "Garnet Valley Gherkins" entry refers to the same physical courts as this facility and was folded in here rather than drafted as a duplicate venue.
