New basketball court in Bad Nauheim: fun for everyone!

Bad Nauheim, Deutschland - The basketball court on Schwalheimer Rad in Bad Nauheim has experienced a remarkable update. With fresh paving, the area was now optimal for enthusiastic recreational athletes: on the inside. The proposal for redesign comes from Sebastian Stumpf, who brought his idea in the "My Bad Nauheim" ideas exchange last year. Over 100 citizens: Inside, supported the proposal, which was subsequently presented at a citizens' meeting in September 2024. The city administration quickly had the construction work implemented and thus ensured better conditions on the square, which was previously severely restricted by an old lawn under the lawn. Mayor Klaus Kreß was happy about the successful implementation and thanked Stumpf when visiting July 9th.

The new covering now makes the basketball court even more attractive to the public and at the same time creates another leisure facility in Bad Nauheim. The paving work was carried out by the trainees of the building yard, which benefits not only to the square but also practical training. Specialist service manager Bernd Sattler reported on the positive experiences of the trainees during the implementation of the project. Such initiatives show how important the active participation of the citizens is: inside for urban development.

But not only this place benefits from the citizen participation. The "My Bad Nauheim" platform offers all interested citizens: inside the opportunity to bring ideas for the future of the city.
