This photo shows the progress being made on the £221,000 project to transform the tennis courts in Cwmbran Park.

The plan is to refurbish the tennis courts for the sport and include netball and basketball courts. The total cost of £221,064.26 has been secured from:

  • Tennis Wales (LTA) £94,316.03
  • Sports Wales £104,275
  • Torafen Council’s Contribution (S106)  £22,473.23

S106 is money the council has received from developers who have built homes in an area to mitigate the loss of other facilities from new developments.

The extra funding from Sports Wales stipulates the courts must “accommodate additional sports, in this case basketball and netball”. The Lawn Tennis Association has been given £21.9m from the Department of Culture Media and Sport and an additional £8.4m from the LTA Tennis Foundation to refurbish park tennis courts across the UK by March 2024.
