TOURNAMENT INFORMATION
A Big Day of Tennis, Wellness & Fun at ATC
We’re getting ready for an event that promises to be one of the highlights of the ATC summer — and with Medpoint Health Care Centre (https://www.medpoint.ca/) behind it, this is one you won’t want to miss.
Join us as we celebrate the Singles & Mixed Doubles Finals of our Summer 2026 Tournament and turn the club into a full day of tennis, wellness, food, drinks, prizes and plenty of great atmosphere.
🎾 Championship Tennis
The best of our Summer 2026 Tournament comes down to the final matches. Come out and watch our Singles and Mixed Doubles finalists battle it out for the championship. Expect great tennis, competitive matches and plenty of excitement around the courts.
💪 Wellness Village
It’s not just about taking care of your game. Our Wellness Village will give members an opportunity to take care of themselves, too. Stop by, explore the offerings and get your body tuned up — because feeling good off the court is just as important as playing well on it.
🍔 ATC Patio Vibes
After the tennis, or in between matches, head over to the ATC Patio for food, drinks and a great club atmosphere. Trails Cafe Ancaster (https://trailscafe.ca/ ) will be providing us with a delicious selection of pastries and cheese. Grab something to eat, enjoy a drink, catch up with friends and take in the action happening around the club.

I must stress that the purpose of this Tournament is to engage in Friendly Competition. No display of Unsportsmanlike Conduct will be tolerated and will result in an immediate default(loss). We must remember that Tennis is a Sport and a Game first especially here at the Ancaster Tennis Club and any challenge on a Tennis Court is JUST a challenge ON the tennis court and nothing more. So, let's enjoy this sport that we love so much and more importantly meet new people and make new friends!
