Proposal — Year Round Tennis and Pickleball Centre at Jasper Place
IQ Tennis & Pickleball Centre came to our board meeting to discuss their plan to renovate the open tennis courts into a year-round covered tennis and pickleball facility.
Some of the renovations include:
Air supported dome covering 8 existing tennis courts.
The existing courts will be resurfaced and two of the courts to be remade to fit 8 pickleball courts.
Dome includes entrance hall, building equipment area (HVAC unit and AC unit, west side of dome), and connects to existing building with updated washrooms, change rooms, and storage area.
IQ Tennis & Pickleball Centre was chosen by the City of Edmonton to explore the potential of covering the existing tennis courts at Jasper Place with an air supported structure to offer Edmontonians an opportunity to enjoy tennis and pickleball year-round.
To learn more about the proposed project you can go to the website.
