Montréal, December 6, 2021 – Tennis Canada is pleased to invite you to a press conference to recap the 2021 season. During this presentation, which will now be offered only in a virtual format, the organization will discuss the performances of our Canadian athletes around the world in the past year. Tennis Canada will also address its financial position and talk about the state of tennis in Canada after two challenging years due to the pandemic and will present its main objectives for the upcoming year.

While Tennis Canada had also initially planned to hold the press conference in person in Montreal, the recent spike of COVID-19 cases in Canada prompted the organization to switch back to a virtual press conference only in order to avoid unnecessary risks.
