About the Team
The UBC Men’s tennis team is a highly competitive member of the Thunderbirds Sports Clubs (TSC), winning the 2022 Canadian University Tennis Championship. The team participates at the highest rank of University tennis in Canada, competing against teams from across the country. Tryouts are held each year to keep the team competitive and to bring fresh players to the roster. The competitive season starts mid-February and ends in August with the Canadian National Championships, held alongside the Rogers Cup. Our goal is to earn a spot at the Canadian National Championships and bring home a national championship for UBC.
