About Us
President Jourdyn
My family lives and breathes tennis, so it is no surprise that I have been playing from a young age! I was a part of my high school tennis team and became the undefeated girls singles champion in Brant County.
I loved the sport so much that I became a certified Tennis Canada Instructor so I could share my passion with others through coaching! Coaching has offered me the opportunity to aid athletes in developing their tennis skills as well as reaching their goals. I continued to coach and play tennis during my kinesiology undergrad at McMaster University and my Master’s at Brock University, competing as an athlete on the Women’s Varsity Tennis team at both universities.
