INDIANAPOLIS — A new facility to play pickleball opened Thursday in Johnson County.
Freedom Park in Greenwood held a grand opening for 16 new courts, the largest pickleball facility in the county. The $1.3 million project is open to the public, but will also host tournaments and other events.
"This amenity will help keep residents happy and healthy while expanding their level of pickleball play in the community," Greenwood Mayor Mark W. Myers said.
The facility will be open seven days a week from dawn until dusk, though lights circle the courts. There is access to restrooms, and 120 parking spots were constructed as part of the complex.
Residents can also rent courts at the Freedom Park facility for private tournaments and events. Those rentals can be made through Greenwood Parks and Recreation.
