Outdoor Tennis Courts at Wheaton Regional Park Close Temporarily due to Work on New Indoor Tennis Bubble

WHEATON, MD—The six outdoor tennis courts at Wheaton Regional Park will be closed temporarily so that crews can paint the framing for the new indoor tennis bubble at Wheaton.

The six outdoor courts will close today, Thursday, August 2 and Friday, August 3. Weekend play, Saturday, August 4 and Sunday, August 5, will be allowed on the outdoor courts. However, the outdoor courts will close again next week, Monday, August 6 through Friday, August 10. 

The Wheaton Indoor Tennis facility closed for renovations in June and is expected to re-open in mid-November. As part of the renovations, the facility is getting new heating and cooling systems, a new exterior skin—the bubble—and brand new lighting. Once re-opened the Department of Parks will offer new programs for teens, seniors and tots, doubling the number of classes and expanding group lessons for all ages to seven days a week at the new facility.
