Responding to Growing Demand

“East Norbeck Local Park is the perfect location for our newest pickleball destination hub. There is ample parking, and the courts already have excellent lighting. The demand for pickleball continues to grow, and the project at East Norbeck is one of several we have recently completed or have in the works.” – (Montgomery Parks planner Chuck Kines)

Kines highlighted that with the new courts at East Norbeck Local Park, Montgomery Parks now boasts 18 dedicated pickleball courts, alongside over 50 shared tennis and pickleball courts. He added that residents seeking tennis courts can find 19 options just minutes away at Olney Manor Recreational Park.
