Peterborough’s Powerleague sports facility is planning to bring exciting new additions to its complex, with plans to replace its current tennis courts with state-of-the-art padel and pickleball courts. The proposal, located on Whittlesey Road in Stanground, aims to replace the existing four tennis courts with five padel courts and three pickleball courts, providing a fresh and modern sporting experience for the community.
The existing tennis courts are described as being underutilized and in poor condition, no longer serving their intended purpose. According to the submitted application, the new courts will not only offer a new surface but also significantly enhance the site’s potential as a recreational facility. The intention is to make the area a more vibrant space for local sports enthusiasts by installing courts designed to meet the growing demand for padel and pickleball, two rapidly popular racket sports.
