La petición está dirigida a: Hamilton Wentworth District School Board

We are requesting that the former tennis courts located on school board property be revitalized into safe and functional Basketball and Multi-use Courts. The existing space has fallen into disrepair and is no longer serving the community. Converting it into Basketball and Multi-use Courts aligns with the City of Hamilton’s Recreation Master Plan Implementation Strategy, which identifies Dundas as a community in the highest need of such facilities.
Creating these courts would provide positive, accessible, and healthy outlets for local youth while making meaningful use of an otherwise abandoned area. We ask for the support of the City of Hamilton, the school board, and community partners to bring this project to life for the benefit of Dundas students and residents.
This request is supported by the St. Augustine’s Boys Basketball League and the Dundas Dynamo Basketball Club.

Razones.

Local youth have spoken clearly about the need for better recreation spaces in Dundas. As one student wrote, “All I’m asking is for a full basketball court with two nets facing each other to be built so that my friends and the other kids of Dundas have a place to hoop and organize games.”
Transforming the abandoned tennis court into Basketball and Multi-use Courts directly responds to that need and aligns with the City of Hamilton’s Recreation Master Plan Implementation Strategy, which identifies Dundas as being in the highest need of Basketball and Multi-use courts (pg. 86).
This project would create a safe, inclusive space where young people can stay active, connect with friends, and build community pride. It is a simple but powerful investment in Dundas youth.

Por qué la gente firma.

Accessible youth recreation is critical to healthy communities.

Kids, teens, and families in Dundas would love more recreational spaces - especially outdoors! This space has been let go for years. It would be amazing to reclaim it for the community.

As a father, I see the importance of physical activity for kids

Heavy supporter of youth sports, wherever they can play.

More opportunities for youth to engage in sport!
