As one of the most dynamic indoor sports facilities in the region, CAN Sports Center is dedicated to keeping the community active and engaged all year long. From high-speed badminton matches to the rising popularity of pickleball and late-night basketball sessions, this is where Markham comes to play, train, and connect.
Whether you’re a beginner, a casual player, or a serious athlete, CAN Sports Center offers a space where everyone can find their rhythm. With high-quality courts, flexible scheduling, and even 24/7 basketball court availability, it’s redefining how Markham stays active — one game at a time.
A Hub for Every Kind of Player
At its heart, CAN Sports Center is built for versatility. It’s not just a badminton facility or a pickleball club — it’s a full-scale indoor sports complex where all kinds of athletes can come together under one roof.
Badminton players love the facility’s professional-grade courts, designed for both recreational rallies and competitive matches. With proper lighting, spacing, and flooring that minimizes strain, every session feels like a step toward improvement. The center often attracts dedicated players looking for a place to refine their skills or simply enjoy a friendly game with family and friends.
Then there’s the growing community of pickleball enthusiasts. As one of Canada’s fastest-growing sports, pickleball combines the fun of tennis, badminton, and ping pong — and CAN Sports Center is leading the charge in Markham with excellent indoor courts tailored to this fast-paced, social sport. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned player, you’ll find the environment welcoming and competitive in equal measure.
The Rise of the 24/7 Sports Lifestyle
Today’s athletes have busier schedules than ever before — juggling work, family, and fitness goals can be a challenge. Recognizing this, CAN Sports Center has made access and flexibility a cornerstone of its mission.
For basketball players, that means the freedom to hit the court whenever inspiration strikes. With a 24/7 basketball court available, you can shoot hoops early in the morning, practice late at night, or organize a pick-up game on your own terms. It’s a feature that’s rare to find in local sports centers — and one that truly caters to Markham’s round-the-clock energy.
Similarly, the 24/7 basketball gym setup ensures that no player has to sacrifice their routine due to limited hours. Athletes who train seriously appreciate the ability to work on their game outside of standard hours, while casual players love the convenience of knowing a court is always open.
This accessibility helps create a stronger, more inclusive community of players — one where fitness fits seamlessly into daily life rather than feeling like another obligation.
Pickleball: The Game Everyone’s Talking About
If you haven’t tried pickleball yet, CAN Sports Center might just be the perfect place to start. Combining elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis, pickleball is a fun, low-impact sport that’s easy to learn but offers plenty of room for strategy and skill development.
The indoor environment ensures consistent play conditions year-round — no wind, no rain, and no weather interruptions. That means players can focus entirely on their game, improve their hand-eye coordination, and enjoy friendly competition with others who share their passion.
Beyond just fitness, pickleball at CAN Sports Center has become a social experience. Many locals have formed friendships and routines around the courts, turning what started as a workout into a community event.
Badminton: Precision, Power, and Passion
Badminton has long been one of Markham’s favorite indoor sports, and CAN Sports Center continues to set the standard for where and how it’s played. With top-tier courts, professional-grade surfaces, and a supportive environment for all skill levels, the center helps both newcomers and seasoned players improve their game.
For serious athletes, the consistent indoor setup allows for focused practice, while for families and friends, badminton offers a fun, fast-paced way to stay active. The sport’s combination of agility, endurance, and reflexes provides a full-body workout — and at CAN Sports Center, every rally feels like an opportunity to grow stronger and more confident.
Building a Community Around Sport
What truly sets CAN Sports Center apart isn’t just the courts — it’s the community. The center serves as a hub where people of all ages and backgrounds come together through shared enthusiasm for sports.
You’ll find young players learning the fundamentals of badminton, adults picking up pickleball for fitness and fun, and basketball enthusiasts organizing drop-in games late into the evening. The shared energy creates an atmosphere of motivation and camaraderie that extends beyond the walls of the gym.
It’s not uncommon for players to stay after their sessions to chat, watch other matches, or plan their next visit. That sense of belonging is what makes CAN Sports Center more than just a facility — it’s a home base for active living in Markham.

Whether you’re trying to maintain your form during the winter or looking for a late-night basketball session during summer, there’s always a way to play.
And for families, the benefits extend even further. Indoor sports encourage teamwork, focus, and discipline — all while providing a fun and healthy outlet for energy. Parents can introduce their kids to lifelong skills, while adults rediscover the joy of movement in a safe and welcoming space.
