The People for Palmer Park are helping put together the first of what is hoped will be MANY free handball workshops at the newly renovated Palmer Park Handball Courts. 

The historic courts reopened with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on October 13, 2018. Passionate members of the Michigan Handball Association from the surrounding communities worked diligently for many months prior to raise the funds needed to get the courts back to a playable state after many years of neglect. These players in turn partnered with PFPP and the City of Detroit and its Parks & Recreation department to bring these courts to a whole new generation of handball enthusiasts.

The group together with PFPP Recreation committee is looking to hold
FREE 4-week introductory Spring workshops 5/18-6/8/2019:

Kids aged 12 & up Saturdays
10-11am 
Adults Saturdays
12-1pm

To help us gauge interest, please send an email if interested--along with any questions or suggestions-- to Stewart Shevin at [email protected].
