Play Your Court is Tennis Canada's national program to revitalize over 100 community tennis courts by 2030 in partnership with National Bank Financial and municipalities. Municipalities own the largest inventory of outdoor court infrastructure across the country. There is a growing demand for tennis at the community level and a need to update outdoor community tennis courts. In 2025, the City of Toronto is improving tennis courts across the city, including improvements to lighting, fencing and court surfaces through its Back on Track program.
