Who are we? Tennis Manitoba is the official governing body for tennis in the province of Manitoba. We are made up of Member Clubs, the membership at these clubs, and other individual members. Each year a volunteer Board of Directors is elected from the membership to help with the planning of the Association.
An Executive Director and small staff are employed to operate the various Tennis Manitoba programs and initiatives. When did we start? The Manitoba Lawn Tennis Association was established in 1880 when two clubs, the Winnipeg Lawn Tennis Club and the Winnipeg Canoe Club, got together to help form the Association.

Services
As the backbone of coaching/tennis professional development in Canada, Tennis Canada uses the National Coaching Certification Program in partnership with the Provincial Tennis Associations to provide the information and training necessary for coaches to meet the needs of the tennis industry and develop successful and rewarding careers.
The course will prepare participants for work as a Roving Umpire (also known as off court umpire) and a Line Umpire, and they will be given an overview of the roles of the Chair Umpire and Referee. The Rules of Tennis and Code of Conduct will be covered. A candidate becomes certified after successfully completing both the two-day course and a practical on court evaluation at local tournaments.
Tennis Manitoba works with partners such as community centres, schools, not-for-profit groups, and parks and recreation departments to increase their recreation programming. We provide a variety of tennis programs for the various ages and skill levels. Whether you have played before, are looking to improve your game, or just want some fun exercise, we have a program for you.
The Tennis Manitoba Schools Program is targeted at children in elementary schools, but it can be accessed by junior high and senior high schools as well. The proper fundamentals are taught within a fun and playful environment. The program is designed by Tennis Canada and introduces the lifetime sport of tennis to children.
Tennis Canada and Tennis Manitoba are pleased to announce the newly launched Online Parent Portal. The portal is designed to be a user-friendly way for parents of competitive players of all levels to easily access pertinent information. Each section includes links to relevant articles, resources, and videos.

It’s so confusing how it’s possible to call a business multiple times during their hours of operation, but always get routed to a voicemail system saying they’ll call you back. Placed 5 phone calls within an hour to these guys , trying to ask a simple question if they also had table tennis but no one responded…ever
