ROGERS ROOKIE TOUR

In its inaugural year, Tennis Alberta is joining a national program designed to bridge the gap between entry-level tennis and the provincial competitive junior circuit. Rookie Tour events have been met with a great deal of success in many provinces, including Ontario, British Columbia, and the Prairie and Atlantic regions, and it is this success that has led to the development of a national program based on the Rookie Tour concept. The Rogers Rookie Tour has the potential to reach thousands of juniors each year at tennis clubs and tennis centres throughout the country, and can encourage these players to continue through the tennis pathway to become regular competitors and/or lifelong tennis enthusiasts.

*This tour is for beginner tennis players with little to no competitive experience.
