Wellesley Township Recreation Centre



The Wellesley Township Recreation Centre is the tentative name of a new recreation facility to be built in Wellesley, Ontario.

The facility is due to open in the fall of 2023. It will replace the Wellesley Arena which has been in poor shape for several years. The facility will contain a single sheet of ice with space left on the property for a second sheet if and when approved. Proposals for a three sheet facility were made but due to the scope of the project a single sheet is adequate for the community's needs for the foreseeable future. The project is estimated to cost $22,000,000 with $16,000,000 coming from the provincial government. It will include two soccer pitches, a youth centre, a senior centre, a walking track and a gymnasium as well as some other open space on the 40 acre parcel on which it is being built. Construction is due to start in March of 2022. When the facility opens it will become home to the Wellesley Applejacks Junior C hockey team of the Provincial Junior Hockey League (OHA).
