Staten Island, in one paragraph
Staten Island players were organizing before most of the city caught on. The local group Staten Island Pickleball says it started its first group at Fairview Park in July 2018 and now has 900 players. The borough's public courts sit at opposite ends: Fairview down in the south shore's Charleston area and Skyline Playground up in New Brighton near the ferry. The indoor scene is concentrated in the south, which is great if you live there and a drive if you don't.
Data notes. Blood Root Valley (Greenbelt) has pickleball pitches tagged in OpenStreetMap, but it isn't on NYC Parks' list, so it's unverified. Pickleball Smash-It at the Staten Island Mall appears only in OpenStreetMap, and we couldn't confirm it on any official or venue site. Primetime Pickleball of Staten Island shows up in Google's local results with no website, so it's left out until we can verify it. The Dink Den doesn't publish street addresses or court counts on its homepage.
