Tennis Court Construction

The time has come – construction is about to begin on the tennis courts! *crowd cheering* Weather permitting the work will begin July 15th and take approximately 6 weeks. The new courts can be played as 2 tennis courts or 1 tennis and 2 pickle ball courts. Thank you for your patience!

Thanks for the consideration of the pickleball courts into the design, this is awesome as pickleball is currently one of the fastest growing sports in North America. I would like to hear more about the court layout and design for the tennis and pickleball. As the pickleball courts are a smaller dimension that a tennis court, typically if properly designed, you can fit 2 pickle ball courts into the space for 1 tennis court. Accordingly, was this though about in the design? How will the process work for people wanting to play tennis or pickleball. Can both tennis courts be used for pickleball if no one else is playing tennis. Can the design be redone, should the Tennis courts not be used and pickleball becomes more played? Has consideration been given for the wind protection netting around the perimeter of the walls to help reduce the wind impacts when playing pickleball (ball is much lighter than a tennis ball) Thanks inadvance for your reply

Sept 25, 2020 Hi I have not heard back from anyone from the Community League with regards to my questions presented on Sept 8, 2020. Could anyone from the Community League please provide a response? Regards Jim

I mimick Jim Lang's words on the tennis/pickle ball courts. I agree that placing wind protection netting around the perimeter be a consideration. I would also like to know how the courts will be divided between the two sports and how will it be decided on court times. Will other communities be allowed access/codes to the courts? We are avid pickle ball players with the Edmonton Pickle Ball Association and would like to play as much as we can in our community.

I am waiting eagerly for the resurfacing of the courts and the pickleball courts. What is happening? It is long past mid July?
