Singapore's Sengkang Town Council will stop pickleball on courts close to housing blocks from November 1 and restrict the nine courts that remain to 10am to 7:30pm, Pickleball News Asia reports, citing an Instagram post by local MP Abdul Muhaimin. Residents chose the measures in a vote after noise complaints.
Other town councils have already acted, from a court ban in Holland-Bukit Panjang to foam-ball sessions in Mountbatten. The site cites more than 700 noise complaints in 18 months as monthly bookings approach 8,000.
