To celebrate the completion of the William Crawford Senior Park Court Restoration project, the City of Woodland will be holding a Grand Opening Celebration. The ribbon-cutting event will be held on Tuesday, July 9 at 9:00 am.
Attendees may visit the Woodland Area Pickleball Association (WAPA) information table to learn more about the fastest-growing sport in the United States. There will be free beginner instruction (open to all ages) and social play immediately after the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Activities will be free and open to the entire community! Refreshments will also be provided.
Plans for the project started in 2022. Construction began in early April and consisted of demolishing the old tennis courts, lights, and fencing followed by the construction of six dedicated pickleball courts. The new courts consist of poles for permanent pickleball nets, a new chain link fence to surround the courts, 4-foot fencing to divide each court, and new energy-efficient lighting for nighttime play.
The Crawford Park courts are the first exclusively for pickleball in Woodland. Pickleball can also be played at other multiuse courts in Woodland at Beamer Park, Spring Lake Park, and Rick Gonzales Senior Park (nets must be brought to these parks to play).
