CityPickle, New York City’s home for pickleball, has officially returned to Wollman Rink for its fourth season. Through early fall, Wollman Rink once again transforms into a 14-court pickleball destination (182 hours of pickleball play a day), welcoming players of all skill levels daily 8 a.m.– 9 p.m.
“We’re excited to return to Wollman Rink and continue growing this incredible community in the world’s most iconic park,” said Erica Desai, co-founder, CityPickle.
This season, CityPickle will offer a Summer Camp for children, July 27 through August 21. Designed to get kids off screens, active and building friendships, the camp features expert coaching with an 8:1 camper-to-coach ratio, with half- and full-day sessions on offer. Learn more. Other offerings at CityPickle include court rentals accommodating up to eight players, open play, group clinics and private lessons.
“Each season, we see more New Yorkers and visitors discovering the joy, connection, and accessibility of pickleball, and we’re proud to help make the sport a welcoming experience for all,” said Mary Cannon, co-founder, CityPickle.
CityPickle and Wollman Park Partners once again offer a discount program to ensure the courts remain accessible to all. Six court hours of Community Play are available daily for $5 per person with complimentary CityPickle x JOOLA paddle rentals. CityPickle offers Community Play for a total of 336 players every week of the season.
“We’re proud to see Wollman Rink bring people together through recreation, movement, and play — not just in the winter but throughout the seasons,” said Tricia Shimamura, commissioner, NYC Parks. “CityPickle’s return introduces thousands more visitors to this fast-growing sport while ensuring that Central Park remains an inclusive and dynamic space, with affordable programming and community partnerships that expand access for New Yorkers of all ages and backgrounds.”
