Rubb Buildings completed an indoor tennis centre for Chesterfield Lawn Tennis Club. The BVC sports building boasts three full size courts and measures 50m (164ft) in length with a 38m (124.6ft) span and 5.25m (17.2ft) sidewalls.

In addition to meeting the Lawn Tennis Association's specification for ventilation and lighting, and providing all services, the centre was constructed with steel clad sidewalls, special fire walls and curtain walling. Periphery curtains and dividing nets separate the individual courts.

A feature of interest is a partially-glazed gable end wall, however the real versatility of the Rubb sports structure is that it was constructed as an extension to the existing renovated clubhouse.

Paul Hatton, Head Coach at Chesterfield Lawn Tennis Club, said: "Rubb Buildings have been an excellent company to work with. They have provided Chesterfield Lawn Tennis Club with a state-of-the-art indoor sports facility; we are all highly delighted with the arena. The three new indoor courts allow the club to open and function all year round whatever the weather."
