PLAINVIEW-OLD BETHPAGE COMMUNITY PARK (516) 733-8400
Washington Avenue, Plainview 19 acres.
Children’s play area, picnic area with hibachis, 4 handball courts, basketball court, swimming pool with diving area, kiddie wading pool, Little League field, 4 lighted tennis courts, softball field.

Handball players have used this park for as long as I can remember and that’s a long time. Every level of ability, from National Champions to Weekend Warriors, have played here over the years.   To this day it is still very active. You can get a game at least four days a week in the mornings. Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday, and Thursday are the most active days drawing at least 15 to 20 players.  Believe it or not, I heard that some of the diehards even shovel the snow off the courts to get a game. 

 

I’ve posted some video’s and of this place but I’m sure some of you can contribute a picture or two. If you have anything just get it to me and I’ll add it to this page. Ed sent me the photo’s below. Better to look good than to play good!
