We’ve collaborated with the Dallas Stars to design state-of-the-art youth multisport facilities that cater to a diverse range of athletic activities and community events. These versatile venues have the ability to feature NHL regulation ice hockey rinks, basketball courts, volleyball courts, and additional amenities such as pickleball and throwball courts. There is also retail and restaurant space available for lease. WRA and our trusted partner Lee Lewis Construction, Inc. offer a range of custom packages to give clients the flexibility to design the space to best fit their community’s needs. These projects exemplify WRA’s commitment to creating multifunctional sports complexes that enhance community engagement and promote youth athletic development.
