The newly rehabilitated Baguio Tennis Court will be inaugurated soon.

Engr. Albert Pay-an of the City Buildings and Architecture Office (CBAO) said civil works and finishings are being fast tracked in time for the target date of completion this April.

Final touches include landscaping to spruce up the surroundings currently being undertaken by the City Environment and Parks Management Office (CEPMO) team.

Pay-an said the newly rehabilitated sports facility will have three international-standard ball courts.

He said the construction followed the specifications that are certified by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) so that the city may now host international and national tennis tournaments.

The courts are located at the main floor along with the bleachers with amenities such as separate locker rooms for male and female players, comfort room and a restaurant.

The rooftop will house one court for pickleball while the basement will offer parking amenities which will be equipped with sensors.
