Whitman Park

Pickleball players in Melville, NY will find 4 dedicated outdoor courts at Whitman Park on New York Avenue, all free to access with permanent nets in place. The courts are currently under renovation, though organized open play remains available on a set weekly schedule: advanced beginner and intermediate players gather Saturday mornings from 9:00–12:00 and Tuesday evenings from 6:00–8:00, while beginner-focused sessions run Mondays and Tuesdays from 12:30–2:00. Note that there is no outdoor lighting, so availability is daytime only. Visitors mention the park's multi-sport appeal, with tennis courts, a soccer field, and a playground also on-site, and players appreciate the dedicated pickleball setup added in 2017.
