Meadow Park Sports Centre bookings return to passholder access only
Updated: January 12, 2021
The RMOW has embraced an adaptive, measured approach to safely plan, and reactivate recreation programs and facilities to meet the needs of our community.
While Meadow Parks Sports Centre is operating at reduced capacity due to COVID-19 procedures, we are prioritizing access to our in-demand programs and facilities for passholders. This change is to ensure that there are enough staff hours to provide recreation programming in addition to supporting COVID-safe operations at Meadow Park Sports Centre.
Beginning on Saturday, January 16, bookings for the squash and basketball courts, pool facilities, indoor public skating, fitness centre and included in-person fitness classes will be limited to passholders with a valid membership; no stand-by or drop-in access.
Access remains unchanged for stick & puck, registered and flexible registration fitness classes, as well as all online fitness classes.
There are a variety of passholder products at different prices available to anyone who wishes to purchase a pass. An online recreation account is required to purchase a pass. If you do not have a recreation account at Meadow Park Sports Centre, you can register by phone at 604-935-PLAY (7529) during business hours. Passes are non-transferrable and non-refundable.
Whistler residents who are concerned that they may not be able to afford the cost of a pass to Meadow Park Sports Centre are encouraged to apply for the PLAY credit through the Whistler Community Services Society.
Welcome back to the fitness studio!
Updated: January 4, 2021

Masks mandatory in all indoor public spaces
Updated: November 26, 2020
As per the Provincial Health Order that came into effect November 19 at midnight, masks are now mandatory in all indoor public spaces.
This means all staff and visitors at Municipal Hall, Meadow Park Sports Centre, community centres, Whistler Public Library and Public Works buildings will be required to wear masks when inside those buildings. Disposable masks will be provided for those who arrive without one.
There are several exemptions:
- Children under two years of age; or children under the age of five years either chronologically or developmentally who refuse to wear a mask or face covering and cannot be persuaded to do so by their caregiver;
- Persons with medical conditions who cannot safely wear a mask or face covering due to breathing difficulties, cognitive difficulties, hearing or communication difficulties;
- Persons who cannot wear or remove a mask or face covering without assistance;
- Staff who are in a non-publicly accessible area where 2m physical distance can be maintained (ie. a private office), or who are within or behind a physical barrier (e.g. Plexiglass)
- Persons participating in a sport or fitness activity at a sport or fitness facility
- Persons consuming food or drink or;
- For any emergency or medical purpose.
Wearing a mask should be combined with other important preventative measures such as frequent hand washing and physical distancing. Only wearing a mask is not enough to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Read the BC Centre for Disease Control's information about mask-wearing to help slow the spread of COVID-19.
The RMOW’s mask-wearing policy is in place to encourage mask-wearing in our community and to support other local businesses with mandatory mask policies in place. In Whistler, there are many good reasons to wear a mask: to help protect our vulnerable community members, to help protect our front-line workers, to help local businesses survive by helping to avoid a second lock down and so that we can ski and ride and enjoy our winter season. Find out why in Whistler, we wear masks.
