Stratford Basketball Association Outdoor Court

Project overview

In a collaborative effort with local residents, businesses, and the City of Stratford, the Stratford Basketball Association (SBA) brought a new, state-of-the-art, NBA-sized basketball court to the community. With over 450 players registered in 2022—and numbers expected to grow—the court is a timely addition that supports increased participation and promotes the sport among youth and families.

Located at the Stratford Education and Recreation Complex (SERC), the new outdoor facility measures 94 by 50 feet, featuring a vibrant, all-weather playing surface, six basketball hoops, and lighting to allow games and practices to continue into the evening hours. The City of Stratford generously donated the land, while the SBA raised over $250,000 through community fundraising efforts to make the project a reality.

MTE's Involvement

At MTE, we believe in giving back to the communities we serve. That’s why we were proud to support the SBA’s vision by donating our time and professional expertise to this meaningful initiative.

As part of our in-kind contribution, our team provided both surveying and civil engineering services. This included the preparation of a detailed site plan, grading design, landscaping layout, and foundation design for the new court. Our work helped ensure the court was safely constructed, functional, and integrated seamlessly into the surrounding recreation complex.

The court officially opened on June 25, 2022, and we are honoured to have our contribution recognized with a commemorative plaque at the court’s entrance. MTE is proud to have played a role in delivering a space where the Stratford community can gather, play, and grow for years to come.
