D’entrée de jeu, je souhaite la bienvenue et la meilleure des chances à toutes les athlètes du Québec et du Canada, ainsi qu’à toutes celles qui viennent de différents pays prendre part à ces tournois du circuit professionnel.

Ainsi, grâce à Tennis Canada et à la Banque Nationale, des étoiles montantes du tennis se révèlent, et des carrières internationales se dessinent. Merci de soutenir les athlètes et de contribuer au développement et au rayonnement du tennis. Bon tournoi à toutes et à tous.

    Tennis Club Connection Issue 03

    Issue 3 – October/November 2012 Message from the Executive Director – Jim Boyce Hello OTA member club executives. As I reflect back on the 2012 outdoor tennis season in Ontario, I have to say - it was a great year! First of all – the weather! Most regions in the province benefitted from a long, dry, warm season with a minimum of rained out days. As well, from the OTA’s standpoint, it was an exceptional year for competitive play at all levels. Several member clubs reported extremely large and competitive club tournament draws, our own competitive tournament schedule saw an increase in the number of events and overall participation. On the national and international front, there were many athletes from Ontario, including Milos Raonic and Daniel Nestor, who distinguished themselves with some outstanding results. I recently had the privilege of watching some of the top young women players in the world compete at the $50,000 Tevlin Cup at the Rexall Centre in Toronto. The singles was won by Wimbledon Junior Champion Eugenie Bouchard from Quebec. She won the final against Toronto pro Sharon Fichman, a player who competed in numerous OTA junior and Open events over the years. While the tournament was an international event, with 12 different countries represented, it was great to see that there were no fewer than 17 athletes from Ontario entered into the qualifying and main draws. Many of these young players actually played across the province as youngsters in clubs and academies like yours and in our sanctioned tournaments. The province’s club system has a long history of producing many national and international champions.

    Tennis Canada and National Bank to Partner on Breakthrough Gender Equality Initiative

    TENNIS CANADA AND NATIONAL BANK TO PARTNER ON BREAKTHROUGH GENDER EQUALITY INITIATIVE Tennis Canada and National Bank announced today that they will partner on a long-term equality strategy for the next ten years, which will create meaningful actions and change for gender equality in tennis. The multi-faceted program is an important milestone of National Bank’s corporate partnership agreement and demonstrates the Bank’s deep and long-term support for the development of tennis in Canada. As part of the initiative, Tennis Canada and National Bank will create new opportunities for women and girls in tennis, encouraging them to continue playing and enticing even more to pick up a racquet, become life-long participants, coaches and reap the benefits of an active lifestyle and personal growth through sport. As a recent study conducted by Canadian Women & Sport in partnership with Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities found, one in every three girls drops out of sport during adolescence compared to only one in 10 boys, while as many as 62% of Canadian girls do not participate in sport of any kind. Tennis Canada has already taken preliminary steps to reach this goal within a constrained COVID-19 environment. As part of the partnership with National Bank, the organization hired a group of highly qualified women coaches and support staff, including former World No. 3 Nathalie Tauziat and former professional Lan Yao-Gallop, to act as touring coaches for young women players part of our high performance pipeline. Fellow former professional Katy Shulaeva has also been hired to coach at the Toronto Regional Training Centre and mental strength advisor, Dana Sinclair, was added to the Tennis Canada high performance team.
