Enjoy a range of fitness, sports, social and cultural activities for any age

Our newest centre adds state-of-the-art fitness amenities to our busy Burnaby Lake "sports central" hub of sports fields and ice arenas. Christine Sinclair Community Centre is located across the street from the Bill Copeland Sports Centre.

Visitor information and hours

Summer parking update: Due to ongoing construction of the Burnaby Lake Recreation Complex, overflow parking will be available at the all-weather gravel field #10 southeast of the Bill Copeland Centre throughout the summer. This temporary parking area will be restored to its original condition by September 2025. View our Parking Map to find available parking locations. Contact [email protected] if you have any questions.

Joe Sakic Way lane reduction: Starting June 18, Joe Sakic Way east of Kensington Avenue is reduced to a single eastbound lane until mid-July to allow for underground utility work. Traffic control personnel are on site to manage vehicle flow and ensure safety. Please note that there is no exit to Kensington Avenue during this period — all vehicles must exit via Sprott Street.
