Experience the Thrill of Competing on the Courts at Box Pickleball
Box Pickleball Container Bar & Kitchen in Riverhead is making waves in the world of pickleball with its unique approach to the sport. The facility, which recently celebrated its grand opening, offers players of all skill levels the opportunity to enjoy the game in a fun and social setting.
Located on Old Country Road, Box Pickleball features nine state-of-the-art courts equipped with Selkirk tournament nets, a fully stocked pro shop, and a full kitchen with a bar. But what sets this facility apart is its innovative use of storage containers as part of its design.
According to Scott Green, the director of Box Pickleball and a well-known figure in the pickleball community, the use of storage containers gives the facility a distinct look and feel. Green believes that this unique approach, combined with the social atmosphere created by the on-site bar and restaurant, is what sets Box Pickleball apart from other pickleball venues.
The popularity of pickleball has been on the rise in recent years, with players of all ages and skill levels drawn to the game’s accessibility and social nature. Green attributes much of this growth to the sport’s appeal as a safe and socially distanced activity during the pandemic, as well as its ease of play.
As Box Pickleball looks to the future, Green is focused on expanding the sport’s reach by working with local schools and youth groups to provide training and potentially establish pickleball as a varsity sport. But for now, the facility is simply focused on providing a fun and welcoming environment for players to enjoy the game.
Whether you’re a seasoned competitor or a complete beginner, Box Pickleball Container Bar & Kitchen has something for everyone. So why not grab a paddle, bend your knees, and give pickleball a try? You might just find yourself hooked on this fast-growing sport.
