Deets: CityPickle, New York City’s home for the country’s fastest growing sport, announces its launch as a part of Power Hour at the Backyard at Hudson Yards presented by Wells Fargo. Taking place October 1-31, the month-long installation will offer lessons and clinics in addition to free court rentals.
Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in America. It is a fun, approachable sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong on a badminton-size court that requires a paddle and wiffle ball. The social sport can be enjoyed by all ages (from 8 to 88 years old) and skill levels.
Following CityPickle’s introduction to New York City at Hudson Yards, the brand will launch its first permanent location in Long Island City in early 2023. The CityPickle concept combines indoor, climate-controlled courts with a full bar and restaurant, making it the ideal destination to spend healthy, quality time with friends, family and colleagues alike.
Hint for the Average Socialite: CityPickle at Backyard at Hudson Yards will be open Monday-Friday from noon to 7 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Free 1-hour court reservations are available by visiting the CityPickle website City-Pickle.com. CityPickle custom paddles are available to rent for $10 per paddle, or players are welcome to bring their own. In addition, hour-long clinics taught by USA Pickleball Manhattan Ambassador Katherine Hedden are available for $100 per hour and can be booked by visiting the website.
