False Creek Tennis Club
Located close to downtown Vancouver, the False Creek Tennis Club is a recreational tennis club for adult tennis players of level 3.0 and above. Almost all Club play is doubles, with a singles ladder also available for non-club times.
Outdoor play runs from mid-April until late-September each year, with drop-in doubles games Sunday mornings and Wednesday and Friday evenings. In addition, various tennis tournaments and social activities are held throughout the year. Check out the events calendar for a complete schedule and event information.
The False Creek Tennis Club is affiliated with the False Creek Community Centre, and rents the tennis courts at the False Creek Community Centre on Granville Island (Sunday mornings) and on top of the Parkade at 600 Moberly Road (Wednesday and Friday evenings). NOTE: Until further notice, the Moberly Parkade courts are closed and our Wednesday and Friday club activities will be held at McBride Park, 3450 West 4th Avenue.

Donate to Community Youth Tennis Foundation in memory of Wayne Lind
Most young players develop their passion for the game on public tennis courts in the community, learning the game in a fun, social setting. This fund supports the development of youth tennis at the community and neighbourhood level providing youth opportunities to participate in and enjoy tennis programs. Tennis BC has programs that donate rackets, balls and learn to play equipment to help keep kids healthy, active and playing for life. Contributions made to this fund are eligible for tax receipts.
