The city approved our plan to convert the courts for multi-use access. Thank you for pushing this request until they finally agreed to open the space for everyone.

The Petition

 Dear citizens and sports enthusiasts,

Currently there are 2 tennis courts and one basketball court seeing moderate use at Southside Park. This is a great opportunity to broaden access to the paved playing courts to other uses such as:

-bike polo

-cricket

-inline skate/foot hockey  

-martial arts/tai chi

-roller derby

-roller skate

-soccer

-yoga

The tennis courts could become multi-purpose activity area with simple changes. Please help reconfigure Southside Park courts for multiple uses with a simple click at this address http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/southside-park-mixed-court-use/

Make sure to get your friends and family to sign too!

Waste of good pavement just sitting there. Bike polo would be perfect on those courts.

Finally some sense. Those tennis courts are empty half the time anyway. Let us use the space for hockey.

Sick of tennis players getting all the space when the park is big enough for everyone. Open it up.

Yes!! We need a place for roller derby practice in this part of town. The current options are way too far away.

Would love to have a spot for outdoor yoga classes without having to drive across the city. Please do this!
