Pickleball fever is sweeping the nation and the Chicago Park District is all onboard.
Pickleball fever is sweeping the nation and the Chicago Park District, like almost every one of its peer agencies, has struggled to keep up with the demand for courts.To meet the boom in popularity, officials announced Thursday that the district will build 50 new pickleball courts by 2025, with construction expected to begin in 2023. The project will be funded through the city’s Chicago Recovery Plan.
The new courts will add to the nearly 80 pickleball courts already spread out across 40 parks.
