Queens College Tennis Bubble Gets Improved Lighting

March 17, 2014 | By New York Tennis Magazine Staff

The Queens College tennis bubble took another step forward in its renovation with the recent installation of improved lighting in the facility. The lights will now reflect light upward and not downward, thus improving the quality of play for the users.

The Queens College tennis bubble offers tennis players a myriad of options for their pleasure. There are lessons for both adults and juniors, open court times, as well as various clinics and USTA events throughout the year.

The state-of-the-art lights reflect light upward, keeping the glare out of players’ eyes; while still providing ample light to play long into the night. The tennis bubble, which was a victim of a tornado in 2010, had undergone a rebirth with new equipment, facilities and now, brand new lighting.

The new lighting, which cost approximately $320,000, was part of an overall $2.4 million renovation to the Queens College bubble and took three months to complete.
