In 1997 new scoreboards were installed at both ends of the court and year later, in 1998, a new roof was put on. In 1999 a new Tartan floor surface was laid, in 2000 a new sound system was installed and in 2009 the floor received a new paint job. In 2010 the men's and women's lockers rooms underwent complete renovation with new lockers and amenities.

New LED lighting was installed in December of 2014 and new scoreboards and a video scorer's table were installed prior to the 2017 season.
