TENNIS & PICKLEBALL COURT PROJECT - AUGUST 2026
TENNIS & PICKLEBALL COURT PROJECT - AUGUST 2026
status: courts closed from mid-august | reopening mid to late september (weather permitting).
The courts located at the northeast corner of the Pembina Hills School Grounds are closed while we reconfigure the site.
Construction commencement has been delayed to mid-August due to ongoing wet weather conditions.
what's changing:
- Two of the three tennis courts are being resurfaced to extend their life.
- The third court is being converted into four new pickleball courts.
- Fencing is being installed.
When we reopen, the site will have two resurfaced tennis courts and four new pickleball courts.
Why: Pickleball demand has grown steadily. One tennis court's footprint accommodates four pickleball courts, so the same space serves more players.
Timeline: Work begins mid-August and is expected to take about four weeks (weather permitting). Outdoor resurfacing depends on dry, warm weather - continued wet conditions may delay reopening.
