James E. Russell Sports Center

At the James E. Russell Sports Center, located at 2016 Pine Street in Travers Park.  We have 4 Indoor Tennis Courts and 14 Indoor Pickleball Courts.

The JER Sports Center was made possible by a $7.5 million dollar donation by Jim and Ginny Russell, the son and widow of James, who, growing up in Sandpoint participated in multiple sports throughout high school, including tennis and football. Paid for with donated funds, the City opened the facility with zero debt or obligations to outside parties. The guiding principles of JER operations are 1) fiscal sustainability (revenues from use fees must cover the building’s costs of operation) 2) equity and access (there must be opportunities for free access for Sandpoint residents), and 3) youth first (memberships will be free for youth). The JER also offers a FREE indoor walking loop open daily during regular building hours.
