We're almost 4 weeks into our project and we're getting closer the the halfway mark to get a total of 150 people! Send me a private message if you are completely against dedicated indoor tennis and Pickleball courts in North Bay, so we can better address similar concerns that other people might have in their decision whether or not to pay their deposit for future indoor membership.

The countdown is on to get at least 150 people to pay their membership to a future build indoor tennis and Pickleball facility in North Bay. If enough people are interested, the Granite Club can start applying for funding for a facility with at least 2 indoor tennis courts and 4 Pickleball courts, together with other amenities. The possibilities for social play, tournaments and other events (especially for Pickleball) will be a a big asset for the sporting community of North Bay Find more information at: https://www.northbaytennis.com/indoorfacility https://youtu.be/XBiDMRkn5uI

Thank you for everybody that joined us tonight for the presentation. To gauge the interest in indoor tennis and Pickleball courts at the Granite Club, we are looking for a minimum of 150 people to pay a deposit towards future membership in an indoor facility to play tennis and Pickleball during the winter. All information on our website. https://www.northbaytennis.com/indoorfacility

Hello everyone courts are a little damp at the moment yet the yellow team is still on for this evening.

Red, Orange and Green Ball Tournament on September 12.

Looks like it will be a rainy morning during the 7-11 year old tennis camp. Well have to keep the players inside the clubhouse while it rains, but the moment we can go outside, well be back on court playing again, even if it still wet. Parents have the option of keeping their children at home since the clubhouse is not very big and well all have to wear masks inside. But the forecast says we'll be back on the courts soon after 9am. While we are inside Ill show them a few things about tennis on our BIG screen TV so they can keep learning.

The first weekend of the 2020 Club Championship is in the books! Thanks to everyone that participated and to everyone who watched the games either in person or online. Would like to send a special congratulation to the winners of the weekend; For Mens Doubles, Adrian Catahan and Finn Muller won the Gold medal game by a score of 6-0 7-5 against Jake Morris & Andre Van Soelen and for the Bronze medal game Paul & Peter Fuzy defeated Robby and Trevor Baas. The Gold Medalist for the Womens Singles event was Diane Johanson, who won a hard-fought match versus the silver medalist Denise Youmans by a score of 6-1 6-3 and the Bronze Medal was won by Maggie Parker who was victorious against Oliva Popp.

While the Club Championships are in full swing here at home, Ryan O'Donnell are down in Toronto blazing through some matches at Ace Burlington in a U16 Transition Tour Tournament. Ryan beat the number 3 seeded player in the first round 6-3 6-3. He then won his quarter-final match tonight and is playing the #1 seeded player at 11am tomorrow in the semi-final. Good luck Ryan! https://ota.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/draw.aspx
