Devonshire Park serves ace with extra tennis courts

Work is underway to build two extra practice courts at Devonshire Park marking the final stage of the multimillion pound tennis investment into the impressive new complex.

Specialist firm Fineturf is constructing the courts which will bring the total number to 19.  These two courts will be seeded this spring and following a year of growth, will be ready for the 2020 international tournament.

Together with the new players’ village, a new show court and state-of-the-art irrigation system, these practice courts make up the package of major improvements delivered in partnership with the Lawn Tennis Association, which has been pivotal in confirming the venue for the flagship event Eastbourne International Tennis until at least 2026.
