Tennis Center Upgrades

RIDGELAND TENNIS CENTER UPGRADES ARE COMPLETE

RIDGELAND, MS – The City of Ridgeland is excited to announce the completion of several upgrades at the Ridgeland Tennis Center, one of Mississippi’s largest public tennis facilities.

LED Lighting Installation: The first major project completed was the installation of new LED lighting on
all of the tennis courts. This project involved replacing the old lighting system, which had been in place for 30 years, with state-of-the-art LED lights. The upgrade was made possible through the Land and Water Conservation Fund, Project Number 28-00701. The City received a grant in the amount of $100,000, which helped to fund the lighting project.

Court Resurfacing: In February 2024, we successfully resurfaced Courts 1 – 6. The total cost for this project was $44,000. The resurfacing work will significantly enhance the playing experience by providing improved court conditions.

Current Court Configuration: As a result of our continued efforts to improve and enhance our facilities, we have fifteen tennis courts in excellent condition. Additionally, two of our tennis courts have been converted into four pickleball courts to meet the growing demand for this sport.

These updates highlight our commitment to providing top-notch facilities for our community and ensuring the Ridgeland Tennis Center remains a destination for tennis and pickleball enthusiasts.
