(TORONTO, ON) October 5, 2023 – Tennis Canada today unveiled the two latest completed projects as part of the Year-Round Community Tennis Courts Program presented by Rogers. A combined 1.63 million community members in Edmonton, AB and Waterloo, QC will now have access to tennis 12 months a year thanks to the construction of air-supported domes over their existing courts.
Funded jointly by Tennis Canada and Rogers, the $5.6 million Year-Round Community Tennis Courts Program will make year-round tennis a reality for thousands of Canadians and help foster increased participation amongst youth. The program aims to build 160 indoor courts at up to 30 facilities by 2029. With the addition of Waterloo and Edmonton, in only the second year of the program, 26 tennis courts have been covered at five facilities in five municipalities spanning three provinces, with another completed project in Stratford, ON set to be unveiled later this month.
