Unfortunately, OHTC will NOT be opening in the immediate future. The City of Toronto has made it impossible for clubs without monitors to comply with their guidelines for operation. So, instead of us running the club with controls in place, the City might open it as public courtsthat will likely be a free-for-all!! If the situation changes during the summer, we might re-open at a later date (beginning of July??), but right now, OHTC will not be running as a club. Very sad.
It is with great sadness that we announce that, once and for all, we are abandoning the OHTC 2020 tennis season. The City of Toronto (grrr!) has come out with revised Stage 2 guidelines that dont reflect any lessening of the burden on tennis clubs, plus their insistence that doubles (2 people in a 36x39-foot area) is too risky o allow, as opposed to the safety of the 35 people in the public swimming pool next door. Even if they revised their guidelines tomorrow, it would ...be too late to run any sort of meaningful season. So, we concede defeat. The club will be run by the City as public courts, so you are free to use them. Very sad...
Good news! Now that Toronto is moving to Stage 2, we might actually be running a 2020 season! At this moment, however, the courts are being run as public. Nets going up tonight at 7 pm!
We FINALLY got permission to get the courts ready for play!! We can access the courts this weekend, with play POTENTIALLY starting Monday, May 25th!! So, I checked The Weather Network...

Yes, Ontario is starting to re-open and outdoor tennis is starting on Tuesday. HOWEVER, we do not currently have a permit from the City of Toronto (nor does any other tennis club). We are working on it and will keep you posted. But PLEASE remember that we still need to be very careful and still keep physically distancing!!! More to come...
An interesting article from The Star about why tennis courts are not openedand may not open at all this summer: https://www.thestar.com//pandemic-serves-a-liability-probl
Bad news! We have been advised NOT to open the club tomorrow, based on legal issues arising from the City of Torontos guideline document for community tennis clubs, plus the limitations of our existing insurance policy. Were still cleaning up the courts this morning, but not putting up nets or windscreens...... So, tennis player will NOT begin on Monday.
Registration Day is postponed until we know more about the tennis season. Community centre closed, parks closed. Stay fit (lots of workouts online) and stay healthy/stay home!!

The City has decided to spend up to $1,000,000 on Broadlands Park, but not to reconstruct OHTC, but to add a MILLION DOLLAR SPLASHPAD! What a waste of funds needed to improve the baseball diamond and fund reconstruction of OHTC. Write to Denzil and say you object. If you want to see what I wrote and add your name to the list of people objecting, write me at [email protected].
Waiting and waiting for spring to get here, then get out playing at OHTC!!
Registration Day is todaycome take advantage of the early bird special!
Registration Day is coming up on Sunday, March 25th, at the Broadlands Community Centre, from 11 am to 1 pm. You can print your membership form at www.oconnorhillstennis.com. See you there!!
