New Basketball Court To Open By Summer In East Brunswick

EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ — The new basketball court, located in Bicentennial Park, is expected to open by summer, the Recreation Department officials announced.

The new court is nestled behind the tennis court at the park. “Our newly reconstructed 2 hoop, basketball court is set to open by late spring/early summer after color coating and surfacing,” officials said on Facebook.

The new court is made of post-tension concrete, making it durable with a 20-year structural warranty against cracking and heaving.

The township plans to host youth and recreational summer tournaments and other activities at the court.

“And of course, it'll be a great place to just shoot hoops with friends and family or by yourself,” the Recreation Department said.

Meanwhile, the new cricket pitch and field is expected to be ready by fall. The new field will be located across the dog park at Heavenly Farms. More: New Cricket Field Expected To Be Ready By Fall In East Brunswick
