Monday Digest: Dabrowski and Routliffe Qualify for WTA Finals
Gabriela Dabrowski and Erin Routliffe officially qualified for the WTA Finals for the third year in a row on Monday...
Tennis Canada's goal is to train high-quality officials and to build a system that provides an opportunity to pursue officiating as both a passion and a profession, thereby creating a pathway from grassroots to high performance. Clinics aren’t just to introduce aspiring officials to the profession, but to allow current officials to advance their certification and career.
The first clinic that everyone must complete is Introduction to Officiating. This is a basic clinic for people interested in becoming officials. After an official gains sufficient experience and collects satisfactory evaluations, they can progress as a roving umpire or attend a clinic and become a chair umpire or line umpire / match assistant.

As a special offer, all Clinic participants will have an opportunity to purchase tickets for the Davis Cup matches between Canada and Israel at the Scotiabank Centre in Halifax.
If an official decides to progress as roving umpire, they can attend this clinic where they learn about more complex rules and regulations. If they gain sufficient experience and receive satisfactory evaluations, they can progress to the role of referee.
There are no clinics planned at this time.
This clinic is intended for experienced roving umpires with sufficient experience at the national and international levels and who receive satisfactory evaluations. Attendees will learn about working as chair umpire, the techniques to use in the role as well as more advanced rules and procedures. They will also attend an on-court practice where they work as chair umpires.
This clinic involves learning about advanced rules and regulations interpretations, managing administration work during the tournament as well as how to use tournament software.
There are no clinics planned at this time.
If you are interested in becoming an official and you do not see a clinic listed in your province, we want to hear from you.
