 our story

Following the devastating mental health challenges which resulted from the lockdown at the beginning of the COVID 19 pandemic, a health and wellness initiative was founded in the summer of 2021 to help children, teenagers, young adults, and older adults get out of their homes to participate in tennis lessons and social activities.   

The initiative became an official Canadian social enterprise called Elevate Tennis Club (ETC) which offers tennis lessons, mostly to immigrants, but also to all communities and ages. 

Since 2021, ETC taught tennis to hundreds of people between the ages of 4 and 50, from a total of 17 countries. This experience has given a lot of joy, energy, discipline and built lasting family and community ties to our learners and their families, even leading some to want to become tennis champions. 

MISSION

Elevate Tennis Club is a Canadian social enterprise that offers high quality tennis lessons which aim to create champions both on and off the court, one tennis session at a time.

VISION

Be among the best tennis academies in Canada which is making this traditionally prestigious sport more accessible and affordable serving people from diverse communities and all ages (4-70)
