Single-Session Clinics

Toronto Racquets offers single-session, topic-specific workshops open to adult players 3.0 NTRP or higher. Each clinic is built around one focused area of the game — whether that’s serve mechanics, net play, doubles positioning, or any other skill — giving players the opportunity to dive deep into a specific part of their game in a structured, coach-led environment. Clinic topics rotate, so players can sign up for what’s most relevant to their development.

Tournament Weekends

Periodically, Stephen Leacock Tennis Club and Toronto Racquets partner to host junior tournaments that bring in competitive players from outside our academy. These events are an important part of what we do — they give our juniors meaningful match experience in a structured, competitive environment, and put Stephen Leacock on the map as an elite outdo club. We appreciate your patience on those days when the courts are being used for competition.
