On Sunday, November 8th 2020, the UBC Men’s Tennis Team will be participating in a collective 100km run to help fundraise for our upcoming 2020-2021 season.
As a self-funded team, we fund our own practice and competition facilities, travel, and gear. Your donations allow us to obtain the appropriate resources to train effectively while helping us grow university tennis in Canada.
Currently our competition is primarily based in British Columbia and Alberta. However, over the next 2 years one of our main goals is to raise enough money to compete against schools in Eastern Canada within our regular season. After achieving this we would love to widen our scope even further by competing against schools in the United States and other parts of the world. With your help we will be able to build our team’s brand and improve our chances of competing at the Canadian University National Championships. Together we can grow tennis in Canada and continue providing young, avid, Canadian tennis players with a strong local opportunity to play tennis at a high level in post-secondary studies.
As part of our fundraiser, we will be drawing a $100 gift card from our friends at Rackets and Runners who were kind enough to sponsor our runathon. For the first $10 you donate before November 8th 2020, you will receive one ticket in the draw. Each additional $5 will earn you one more ticket for the draw!

We thank you for your support and can’t wait to see you at our matches when we are able to compete again! In the meantime, stay safe everyone!
