The 24-hour court cancellation policy has been lifted for all summer court bookings.

If you cannot make it for your summer court booking, PLEASE CANCEL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, in order to give other members the opportunity to book the available court.

To be fair to all members, we also ask that members do not book courts with the intention of 'HOLDING' a court time and then not show up. Members who do not attend their court bookings without cancelling will be subject to a CANCELLATION FEE.

NOTE: Members CANNOT book more than TWO CONSECUTIVE HOURS per court booking

GUESTS: Members are required to report all guests when booking court time. The name(s) of the guest(s) MUST be listed in GameTime.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE CANCELLATION OF YOUR MEMBERSHIP.

Thank you for your cooperation

If you are looking for a playing partner, for practice or a game, make sure to check out Gameboard

You can add yourself to GameBoard, or search the list for others who want to play.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear Sharon Thompson on June 19th 2023.

Sharon is survived by Allan, her loving husband of over 52 years, daughter Caroline (Gihad), son David (Bridgette), her mother Jessie Pettifer, and her 5 very dear grandchildren Eli, Simon, Chloe, Phoebe, and Jake. Special mention to her brother Graham (Valerie), their daughters Kate (Jonathan) and Sandra, and the entire Thompson clan, and the Enns cousins.

Sharon was born on July 7, 1947 in St Catharines and later lived her life in Ottawa, Hamilton, and Toronto.

After completing her Honours Bachelor of Arts and Teacher’s Certificate at McMaster University, she taught English in Scarborough high schools until her retirement from Woburn Collegiate Institute. She was a beloved teacher to her students, especially the friends of Caroline and David who were also students at Woburn, and the teachers at Woburn became her lifelong friends.

Sharon and Allan travelled the world including many trips to Europe, China, South East Asia, Turkey, Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean, and most of Canada.

She loved her home in Scarborough where she hosted many gatherings for family and friends, either around the pool or around the dining table. She loved her art group, reading books, attending Blue Jays games (since 1977), and baking with her grandchildren.

We would like to thank the doctors and nurses of Scarborough Health Network and Princess Margaret Hospital for their hard work, kindness, and compassion. Sharon had many wonderful years of health after her initial diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in 2017.

In lieu of flowers and gifts, please consider a memorial donation to the Scarborough Health Network Foundation.

As requested by Sharon, a celebration of life will be held at a later date.
