UPDATE ON 2021 SEASON
To False Creek Tennis Club members:
June 6, 2021: We are now in Step 1 of "return to sport". There are no on-court distancing restrictions. Off court, you must still maintain 2 meters distance and wear a mask (Tennis BC guidelines). We are waiting until June 15th to see how this return-to-sport step works, before we look at accepting additional members.
Stay safe, everyone!

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. (Note -during COVID restrictions there will be no special events.)
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).
New members are welcome; see the membership info page for details about becoming a member of the club.

UPDATE ON COURTS
The Moberly Parkade tennis courts reopened in October 2020. So far, they are very dirty, though we have made a request that they be cleaned -- you can call 3-1-1 as well if you find the courts too dirty to use. The courts were supposed to be washed on April 1 but apparently Parks Board has 'other more pressing issues'. Likewise, call 3-1-1 if there is garbage or blocked drains - it seems that the courts are only looked at if the public takes the time to call 3-1-1.
