New tennis court with multifunction
Something is happening behind sports hall 3: the renovation of three of the six existing tennis courts. Oliver Beymel from the construction and property department explains: "Two courts will be covered with a wooden open-air hall. This will enable sports to be played even when the weather and light conditions are not ideal. The structural work for this was completed in June 2024."
An underground infiltration system is currently being installed, including for the reuse of rainwater. Furthermore, wood preservation work is being carried out before the LED lighting system is installed and preparatory work for a photovoltaic system is carried out. The installation is due to take place this year, subject to funding being approved. The roof area of around 1,400 m² allows for a system size of approx. 200 kWp. This means that an annual yield of 150,000 kWh of clean energy can be forecast.
Planning for the final restoration of the outdoor sports facilities is in full swing. The main focus is on "multifunctionality". For example, sports groups that currently train mainly in the basement of sports hall 3 will also be able to enjoy fresh air training. The work should be completed by the beginning of the fourth quarter. Consideration has also been given to the bicycle parking spaces, which will also be spruced up and given appropriate lighting as part of the construction work.
