Funded by Neath Port Talbot Council and Sport Wales, these new facilities are now open to the public, providing spaces for tennis, netball, and basketball.
The previously underutilised areas have undergone a £167,000 revamp, which includes resurfacing of the games areas and improved drainage, new court markings set to governing body standards and new court furnishings including tennis nets, and basketball and netball hoops.
It also includes new perimeter fencing and improved wheelchair accessibility.
