A hard hat will a pickleball on it designed for the ground breaking of new pickleball courts in Morgan Hill, Calif., on Friday, Jan. 5, 2024. The Cupertino City Council will deliberate Wednesday whether to approve a re-design of Memorial Park that includes eight long-desired pickleball courts, part of an ongoing plan to improve the area’s amenities.
“Pickleball is that sport which binds a community,” local player Catherine Chiu said in a statement, “and is one that this City Council would want to nurture.” “If there’s one word to summarize the pickleball experience at , it is joy,” Chiu said. “We feel joy of the sport on the courts, and joy among new-found friends off the courts.”
“We did a good deal of public outreach over the last couple of years,” said Susan Michael, Capital Improvement Programs Manager in Cupertino. ” We had over 3,000 people respond and give us their opinions about what they wanted. The pickleball community definitely spoke up, and the pickleball courts are already quite well used. That’s why we put it in the design.
