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 for repair. Until the repairs are complete, our Wednesday evening tennis will be held at McBride Park, 3350 West 4th Avenue, and on Friday evenings we will be at Granville Park, 3001 Fir St.
New members are welcome; see the membership info page for details about becoming a member of the club.
