New tennis centre on track to open this year

A new indoor tennis centre in Dumfries is on course to open later this year.

The Transforming Scottish Indoor Tennis (TSIT) project at the King George V sports complex has reached the halfway stage in its construction.

Work began in February on the three-court centre which will open towards the end of the year.

It is part of nationwide efforts to boost participation and will provide year-round access to tennis for players across Dumfries and Galloway.
