Thank you all for your patience. This venture started with a mission to revive squash in Windsor after the loss of our previous club last Christmas. As dedicated racquet sports enthusiasts, we saw a growing need for indoor pickleball facilities as well. Now, we're excited to announce that Windsor Racquet Club (WRC) will be opening inside Central Park, with a targeted opening around December 1, barring any unforeseen delays.

WRC will launch in two phases:
Phase 1: 3 professional pickleball courts and 2 all-glass squash courts.
Phase 2: Beginning April 1, this phase will add 3 more pickleball courts (bringing the total to 6), 1 additional squash court (totaling 3), and 2 padel courts.

With these additions, WRC will be Canada’s only club offering all three sports—squash, pickleball, and padel—and one of only two in North America.

If you’re unfamiliar with padel, it’s a highly enjoyable and accessible sport that combines elements of tennis, squash, and pickleball. It originated in Mexico in the 1970s, gained massive popularity in Spain, and has been spreading across Europe. Now it’s making its way to Canada and the U.S. You can check out this video for a quick introduction to the game:

We’re planning programs for all skill levels across squash, pickleball, and padel, including leagues, open play sessions, ladders, tournaments, and personal court bookings. We’re also excited to revive a successful junior program, starting right away with junior clinics. Pricing information will be available soon, as WRC will operate as a membership-based club. While we’re working hard to get everyone playing as soon as possible, please bear with us if there’s still some finishing work underway.

We’ll continue to share updates through this email list, as well as on our website and Instagram pages.
