FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — Central Fresno is now home to brand-new pickleball courts, meeting local demand for space to play a popular sport.
“You know, one of the fastest-growing sports, if not the fastest-growing sport in America, is the sport of pickleball,” says Mayor Jerry Dyer.
Action News was there as Fresno City leaders cut the ribbon for pickleball courts, along with courts for basketball and futsal at Roeding Park.
They had previously been just for tennis.
New netting and enhanced lighting are in place.
Measure P funded this $1.5 million project.
More courts are planned in the coming weeks at Vinland Park.
