The long anticipated reconstruction of the Palmer Park Tennis Courts has begun!

According to People for Palmer Park Board member and Palmer Park Tennis Academy Director, Leonora King, the process begins with tearing up the cement and then letting the area rest over the winter. Asphalt can be put down sometime in April 2019 and the top playing surface laid sometime in May 2019.

"All of this is done to extend the longevity of the courts," King said.

A total of nine new courts will include six junior courts for the kids and one bank of courts marked for pickle ball players. Additional improvements will include new fencing, benches, nets and windscreens.

Reconstruction of the Palmer Park Tennis Courts by the City of Detroit is made possible in part by a grant from the Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation. 

Completion of the Tennis Courts project set for May 30, 2019

Experienced professionals who possess the equipment as well as the knowledge required to construct a tennis court. Besides, the tennis court needs routine maintenance to last long. So, the condition of different types of installations, as well as tennis court, should be inspected regularly and cracks developed in the court needs to be repaired. Besides, other types of damages also need to be inspected and repaired in time. To know more, readers may like to visit,
