Recreation Centre

The Wawanesa Recreation Center was completed in 1975. Within one facility, it combines a full size artificial ice Hockey Rink, a Curling Rink with 4 sheets of artificial ice and a pistol and rifle range. Wawanesa is home to national and international championship marksmen. The facility is used extensively during the winter months as the centre plays host to a number of minor sports teams and holds many hockey tournaments and curling bonspiels annually.

There are several curling clubs that make use of the facility. The men's club,  women's club, and senior leagues hold league play during the curling season. As well, there is a curling league in the school that makes use of the building twice a week during the winter months.

The hockey rink is used mainly for hockey, but occasionally for figure skating as well. The rink boasts several minor sports teams, high school hockey, and a senior level team.

The centre is also available during the summer to rent for events like auctions, etc.

Directly behind the Recreation Centre is the Wawanesa Fairgrounds. The Wawanesa Fair Grounds play host once a year to a stop over by the Manitoba Great Western Harness Racing Circuit. The Fairgrounds also have the Riverbend Baseball Complex with 3 irrigated diamonds used by all of the local baseball teams of various age levels.
