Who We Are

The UBC Tennis Club is a vibrant community of tennis enthusiasts at the University of British Columbia. We welcome players of all skill levels, from beginners picking up a racquet for the first time to competitive players looking to improve their game. Our club is built on the principles of inclusivity, sportsmanship, and a shared passion for tennis.

Have the same love for tennis as us? Join the AMS UBC Tennis Circle and take part in indoor and outdoor hitting sessions, member socials, tournaments, and more.

Our Mission

Our mission is to foster a welcoming and inclusive tennis community at UBC where students can develop their skills, build lasting friendships, and enjoy the sport we all love. We organize regular tournaments, social events, and training sessions to bring together tennis players from across campus and create memorable experiences both on and off the court.
