Tennis players can look forward to new all-season courts at Field Place Manor House & Barns in Worthing as work gets underway to improve the existing facilities.
The refurbishment scheme, which will see £255,000 invested in the new courts, has been made possible with funding from Worthing Borough Council.
The improvements at Field Place Manor House & Barns will include the full reconstruction of the courts with a permeable sub-base and surfacing, to create all-weather playing facilities. The new courts will be finished in a Wimbledon-style colour scheme of green surround and purple courts.
The tennis courts will be closed from Monday 6 July for the contractors to start the improvement works, and will reopen in September.
Duncan Anderson, CEO of South Downs Leisure who run the tennis courts situated at The Boulevard, Worthing as part of the town’s leisure offering said:
“We are really excited to be upgrading the surface of the tennis courts at Field Place. This ongoing period of uncertainty has highlighted that physical activity is essential, whilst also showcasing to us just how important these courts are to local tennis lovers. We are pleased to be working with Worthing Borough Council to improve these facilities, so that they can be enjoyed all year round.”
