At the Sax Centre, we’ve always believed that great sport experiences extend beyond the court.
As we continue building Calgary’s home for beach volleyball, we’re thrilled to announce our partnership with Wingate by Wyndham Calgary Airport as the Sax Centre’s Official Hotel Partner.
Located just 11 minutes from the Sax Centre at 57 Freeport Cres NE, Wingate will help support visiting athletes, families, and tournament participants with a reliable and welcoming place to stay while competing in Calgary.
This partnership feels like a natural fit—not only because of location and convenience, but because both organizations share something deeper in common: a belief that people and community come first.
The Sax Centre is a family-owned business built around creating meaningful experiences through sport. From youth athletes discovering beach volleyball for the first time to high-performance competitors pursuing national competition, our goal has always been to create a place that feels welcoming, ambitious, and community-driven.
That same philosophy shaped the Wingate by Wyndham Calgary Airport: a place designed for business travellers, families, and visitors looking for comfort, convenience, and exceptional service. Their commitment to guest experience was recently recognized through the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award (2024) — an award given to properties consistently delivering outstanding guest reviews.
Owned and operated by Schinkel Properties, a family-owned hospitality company with roots spanning more than three decades, Wingate Calgary Airport reflects a simple but powerful approach to hospitality: creating spaces where people feel genuinely cared for.
Guests staying at the Wingate can enjoy:
Complimentary daily hot breakfast
Complimentary airport shuttle service
Indoor pool and hot tub
Fitness centre
Free WiFi
Free parking during stay
Modern guest amenities and workspace options
As the home of the NBVL and O’Saxman Beach Volleyball Club, the Sax Centre hosts leagues, training, camps, and tournaments throughout the summer season—and with the completion of our 20,000 sq ft indoor beach facility, we’re excited to welcome athletes year-round in the near future.
We know that more and more athletes and families will be travelling to Calgary to train and compete, and we’re proud to offer a hospitality partner that aligns with the experience we want visitors to have.
