Facilities

This is Tennis Canada’s innovative grassroots approach to achieve affordable and accessible year-round recreation.

Tennis is one of the fastest growing sports in Canada but unfortunately its growth is limited to the summer. With only 10% of Canada’s courts being covered to allow for year-round play, thousands of communities across Canada do not have access to tennis for the majority of the year.

Whether you are a recreation leader in your municipality or a community tennis champion, Tennis Canada wants to work with you! To learn more about bringing year-round tennis to your community read about our Strategy below or contact us at coveredcourts@tenniscanada.com.

Tennis Canada wants to work with municipalities and local tennis champions to help deliver safe and affordable recreation opportunities for residents for all ages, abilities and skill levels. Discover how year-round tennis can transform your community.

QUICK GLANCE

By covering courts, municipalities can convert unused space during the winter months into a community asset. Learn more about how communities can use innovative and flexible partnership models to create accessible and affordable year-round recreation facilities.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

From partnering with a not-for-profit organization to creating a multi-sport hub, Tennis Canada’s Municipal Tennis Facilities Strategy and Partnership Framework guides municipalities through the numerous options they have to make a covered court facility a reality.
