Park Startbaan has been closed since december 15th 2020 due to the coronapandemia. How long this forced closure period will last is still uncertain, but for the time being an extension has been decided by the government until February 10, 2021. It is uncertain whether the closure will be prolongated thereafter or not. After the reopening of the park, we will inform everyone
Dear tennis players and billiard players Sports at our park will not be allowed for the time being, until February 10th. It is a hard blow for everyone involved. But we have to accept this reality. We fully understand the decision of our government, convinced of the necessity. Hopefully more will be possible from February
The space of the two dressing rooms has now been completely “demolished”. The future walls are “drawn” on the floor with wood, after which the installer can start installing the underfloor heating after the holidays. (see picture)
There are five ash trees on the right side of the park entrance. These trees determine the park-like character upon entry. We have a sad message about these trees. Three of the five ash trees unfortunately have to give way as a result of the construction work.
The new tile path between lane 2 and 3 is being prepared Preparations for the foundation of the padel courts are in full swing at the site of the practice court or mini court. This is where the practice track comes in, at the end of the "palm path" between lanes 8 and 12.
All interior walls in the women's and men's locker room area will be removed. This will cause the most inconvenience during this renovation. Although the inconvenience caused by the current closure of the Sports Café due to corona is of course not too bad.
The renovation of Park Startbaan is entering the next phase, a phase of construction and renovation that will be completed in 2023. It is a comprehensive and ambitious plan, which is realized from one vision and we would like to share that with our regular players and visitors. This requires regular and recognizable reporting. In
The long-awaited renovation of the clay courts will start next winter. The following activities are planned: - Replacement of the almost 50 year old fencing - Replacement of the park entrance gate
We will start renovation work on the changing rooms on 30 November at an accelerated pace, partly due to the current corona restrictions. The layout of the rooms changes completely. The ladies' and men's dressing room will soon be located next to a new corridor that gives the bar a short route to the billiards center. For billiards this will be a new entrance, the old entrance will be closed.
We don't tell the regular visitors of the billiard center anything new: in the summer the billiard center is often too hot. Problems arise if the outside temperature rises above 20 degrees. At even higher outside temperatures, the inside temperatures are correspondingly higher.
