A new recreation place at Tsawwassen Mills mall will provide volleyball and pickleball athletes a new place to play in South Delta.
The Nest, at more than 90,000-sq.ft in area, will open next spring at the mall and offer 14 indoor pickleball courts.
“We’re honoured to collaborate with Tsawwassen First Nation and Tsawwassen Mills in building a space where the athletic community can thrive,” founding partner Lorne Loiselle said in a news release. “With its state-of-the-art facilities and extensive programming, The Nest will redefine the pickleball and volleyball experience in Canada.”
In all, using the flexible volleyball space, a total of 28 courts will be available for large-scale pickleball events in the facility that will have professional lighting and a 10-metre-high ceiling. It will also be home to the Pickleball Depot store.
Ground breaking, or parking lot pavement breaking for construction, took place Sept. 9.
Coaching, clinics, league and social play will be under the leadership of Steve Deakin, coach of the Las Vegas Night Owls of Major League Pickleball.
