More than 1,000 workers across the Calgary Board of Education and Calgary Catholic School District are set to walk off the job Monday .

Local sports groups say the impending strike by school custodial and maintenance workers will put a strain on finding spaces to finish out the winter season .

Lack of public spaces in the city means clubs often turn to private partners and rent facilities at a cost or rely on school gymnasiums as an affordable alternative.

This weekend marks the end of the regular season, but players will be prepping for playoffs and youth provincials.

High school basketball would also be affected.

School operations and hours would be impacted if the strike goes into effect.

School council and parent meetings will be moved online or to other non-school venues.
