Dear Members
Now that the Province has announced that tennis clubs can be opened, we are
anxiously awaiting instructions from the City of Mississauga to ensure a safe opening of
the club this season. We know that Oakville and Brampton have now opened their clubs
so your executive is frustrated that we are not in similar circumstances.
This week, I attended two online meetings with the city and was under the impression
that clubs could re-open this coming weekend. However, this is NOT the case. The
next meeting with the city is scheduled for late next week. Hopefully, our club opening
will subsequently occur.
We appreciate that the city has work to complete to allow the safe opening of clubs i.e.
turning on water, opening parking lots, issuing instructions regarding safe play etc. In
addition, your executive will need time to organize the club opening i.e. activation of
registration on-line, putting up wind screens, nets etc.
Please know that we will continue to keep you updated and once we have instructions,
all tasks will be expedited and you will be advised of the conditions under which we will
be able to play tennis again.
Stay safe and healthy and see you on the courts!!
Ivan Jimenez
President
