The project transforms Rosland Park into a premier pickle ball destination by doubling the number of dedicated courts from 5 to 10, replacing makeshift overlays with high-end fully dedicated courts. Each court will have individual fencing and gates to improve safety and play quality. The donation honors the legacy of John and Melvin Moody, who introduced pickle ball to the family and community. The project accommodates players of all skill levels, from beginners to tournament competitors, and serves as a gathering place for families and friends. Construction will occur in two phases with completion targeted for this season.

It'll be something that even the beginners can enjoy to the tournament type people could enjoy. So many people have just learned to play this game that is a big part of our our family to have this be a place where families and friends can come together and and just have a great time.
And pickle ball is a game you can pick up quickly. So you got grandkids playing now for us and and you get people even older than me uh still playing too. And it's it's just fabulous.
