The Royal Borough of Greenwich and the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) have announced a partnership to potentially invest in and refurbish public park tennis courts in Royal Greenwich.
In total, funding is available for the refurbishment of six park tennis venues with an investment in the region of £300,000. Altash Gardens, Bostall Gardens, Kidbrooke Green Park, Maryon Park, Plumstead Common and Chesterfield Walk have been identified as sites for investment. The works would ensure quality facilities are available for the local community for years to come.
To ensure residents have access to high quality, sustainable facilities, refurbishments would include:
The council must ensure that the courts will be sustainable to secure the LTA funding and have developed a proposed low-cost pricing model that would cover maintenance costs and secure the future of these community courts.
Courts will be available to book online including via the LTA website, making it far easier to find and book a court or activity. Bookings could also be made by telephone.
We want to hear your thoughts on our proposals for the refurbishment and future pricing and booking models.
We will be holding community forums where you can learn more about these proposals and share your views.
