Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Assemblyman Jake Blumencranz today announced that new pickleball courts are open for play at Plainview-Old Bethpage Community Park. Due to popular demand, the Town constructed two new pickleball courts in the park with the assistance of $75,000 in New York State grant funds secured by Assemblyman Blumencranz.

 

“Pickleball is a fun sport for all ages that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping pong. It’s become incredibly popular in our Town, with seniors and families playing daily at our existing courts,” said Supervisor Saladino. “Due to this popular demand, I’m proud to announce that the Town of Oyster Bay is building new pickleball courts for all residents to enjoy.”

 

“Pickleball is a very fun, social and healthy activity for the whole family and these new courts will be a welcome addition to the community. So, grab your sneakers and paddle, and get ready to play one of the world’s fastest growing sports at the new courts in Plainview-Old Bethpage this spring!” added Assemblyman Blumencranz.
