The challenge of building a sports facility definitely lies on its multi-purpose needed function. Way more than tennis courts it is a very complex thinking & preparation to be led hand in hand with the architect. Sizing spaces for each room and purpose, anticipating flow, access control and the ultimate user experience. This is a must do for each square meter of your place.
The fitness area, the courts, the locker room, the bar/restaurant, the players lounge, the meeting rooms, outdoor space like terrasse or roof top, pool and/or spa, stadium & seating, not forgetting all the working spaces.
All these different spaces have to work together, offering a natural flow of circulation, being all design & branding friendly, and of course last in time.
And there’s even more complexity when you know what makes the tennis and sports industry so special! The biggest challenge is to make the facilities well thought off and flexible enough to welcome a wide range of user types. Young to very young kids, adult members or simply parents, athletes to high level players, single users and teams, VIPs or influencers. From the daily activity of your club to the busiest days during tournaments this multi-faceted traffic is definitely something to consider for any successful project.
Technical & official (ATP/ITF) requirements, surface types, orientation, wind protection, seating capacity, lighting regulations & technologies on offer. Building tennis courts requires knowledge and expertise in the field.
