Unique Basketball Business Wants To Open In Milford

MILFORD, CT — Mike Welsh, the owner of Revolution Basketball, is proposing a unique training facility at 252 Depot Road in Milford.

According to plans filed with the Planning and Zoning Department, Welsh is seeking to establish a basketball training program (classified as a gym use) of +/- 3700 SF (the plan shows 2,739 SF, the office portion is not counted separately), located at 252 Depot Road.

The existing building and rear building contain a mixture of warehouse, manufacturing, office, and industrial space. A fence is proposed that will run between 252 and 262 Depot Road, effectively dividing and limiting the uses to their respective sides of the fence.

Currently, 262 Depot Road and the buildings in the back of that side are vacant and are not part of this application. Both the main buildings 252 and 262 are being rehabilitated, and the entire site itself is being rehabbed and restored, meeting minutes state.

According to the filing, Revolution Basketball Training .... is a "basketball development training facility that focuses on individual skill enhancement." Specialists will teach and demonstrate "high-level skill development by breaking down footwork, body positioning, ball handling and shooting mechanics with intensity, speed and repetition to help athletes find more success with their own game." They currently have a facility open in Manchester.
