Friendly Reminder: Pickleball start time is 8 AM at King St Memorial Park

Shared from the Franklin Recreation page:

"As you know, there is opposition to the sport of pickleball and the noise it creates in other parts of the country/state.  Many Towns are being forced to shut down courts and facilities due to neighbors that do not like the sound.  I'm not sure if this group knows, but we have neighbors of the King Street courts that are not happy with the noise.  

Especially with early morning play on weekends.  I received another complaint today of someone playing pickleball at 6:20 AM.  This really isn't fair to the neighborhood.  

We have advertised start time would be no earlier than 8:00am.  Just to reiterate, the hours at King Street courts are:

Open Play-8:00am-12:00pm

Reservations-12:00-4:00pm

Open Play-4:00-8:00pm

Please continue to use the Team Reach app on your mobile device: Group code:  KingStPB 

With our hope for additional courts in FY2024, we really need to spread the word that pickleball can not start before 8am.  These players breaking the rules will force the Town to shut down courts, like they have in other communities.  

We have all worked too hard for this to happen.  Please respect our neighbors and follow the rules.   

Thank you,  

Ryan Jette"
