Tennis enthusiasts looking to play night matches at Franz Ross Park will have to put their games on hold, as the tennis court lights are currently down for the count. A recent announcement made it clear that these essential illuminators are out of service, and repairs are well underway. The fix isn't a quick one, though – officials have stated that it'll take a few days before players can once again serve and volley under the lights.
It's an inconvenience, to be sure, but one that the powers that be are handling with due haste. If you're looking to get your tennis fix, daytime play is still very much an option while we wait for the lights to come back online. And for those who live for the night game, just hang tight. According to a statement obtained by Charlotte County's official news release, the darkness should be short-lived.
For updates on the repair status or questions about when night tennis will resume, contact Monty Rodriguez at 941-613-3229 or [email protected]. Stay informed, and you’ll be back to playing under the lights soon.
