New outdoor pickleball courts coming to Ambleside Park

Beginning this summer, the District will begin construction of four new outdoor pickleball courts in Ambleside Park. This project comes as a result of recommendations from the Pickleball Advisory Roundtable, established in October 2023, to support the growth of pickleball in our community.

The new courts will be situated south of the Spirit Trail, on H Field, a gravel field which is currently primarily used for parking. The placement of the courts meets with recommendations from Pickleball BC regarding noise mitigation.

Construction is scheduled to begin this summer, with completion expected in the fall of 2024.
