Game on! The Centerville-Washington Park District (CWPD) has added two new pickleball courts at Yankee Park, meeting growing community demand for the fast-paced, social sport.
The upgrade came during a planned resurfacing of the park’s three tennis courts this summer. One court was converted into two pickleball courts, while the remaining two tennis courts were refreshed. The project took about 10 weeks to complete.
“Pickleball has become one of the fastest-growing sports in our community,” said Kristen Marks, Centerville-Washington Park District’s Executive Director. “In our most recent community survey, residents told us they wanted more pickleball. We’re thrilled to offer this new space for people of all ages to play, connect and have fun.”
The new courts join CWPD’s six existing pickleball courts at Activity Center Park, giving local players a total of eight dedicated public courts to enjoy. All courts are open during daylight hours on a first-come, first-served basis.
Yankee Park is located at 7500 Yankee Street in Washington Township.
