2020 Tennis BC Excellence Awards

Tennis BC Excellence Awards are usually presented at the Annual General Meeting held in September. The awards acknowledge the incredible contributions made by communities, coaches, clubs, officials, volunteers, and players in helping to grow the game.  Due to the AGM being hosted as a virtual meeting this year, the awards were presented there.  We believe the awards presentation is a special event and we would like to present the awards to the winners at a more personal venue.  We will be in touch as soon as we have this finalized.
