Men’s League 

We will use the same format as last year with a rotating schedule with start times of 6:00, 7:30, 9:00 so every week your start time will change.

Ladies who play at a nationally competitive level can apply with management at info@GlobalFitnessKelowna.com to play in the league.

It is imperative that each player commit to being there ready to play at the assigned times to be fair to the other players on the court. Each Player is responsible to find your own spare if you cannot make it any given week. If your spare wins the court, you do not move up but if your spare loses the court you do move down one court. If you do not arrange a spare, the first occasion you will be bumped down 2 Courts the following week, and the second occasion you will be removed from the league, with NO REFUND!

Spares: This year we have created a spare list.   This is for male members 16 plus that cannot commit to the entire league nights but would like to spare occasionally.

Ladies League

If you are a female tennis player at Global and want to join a community of other women who love tennis, sign up for this Sunday night Ladies League. The level of play for this league is between tournament level 3.5 to 5.0 players. If you self-assess as a 3.0 or are unsure of what your level would be, please email or call Makena. If you have never played in the league before and this would be your first time, please email or call Makena. Please reach her at 250.826.2206 or reachingformoore@gmail.com before registering.

There are 24 spots available, first come first serve with payment. The format remains the same as previous seasons, where Courts 1/2/3 will play at 4-5:30pm and Courts 4/5/6 will play at 5:30-7pm. Matches will be played in doubles format, rotating partners with the other people on your assigned court. At the end of your 1.5 hour rotation, the number of games won will dictate what court you end up on the next week, providing you the opportunity to play with other ladies of the tennis community. We are looking for competitive women who want to be challenged by their fellow players and want to enjoy themselves on court.

Please ensure that you are committing to the whole 9 weeks of this league. If you cannot make the league on a night, you are responsible to find your own spare and ensure that they show up on time and ready to play. If your spare wins the court, you do not move up. If your spare loses the court, you do move down one court. If you do not arrange a spare, the first occasion you will be bumped down 2 Courts the following week, and the second occasion you will be removed from the league, with NO REFUND!

If you want to be on the Spare List only, please email reachingformoore@gmail.com with your name, best phone number, and your approximate level on a 3.0-5.0 scale plus what courts you have usually subbed for in the past

Get HIIT with Court Fit

Are you a racket sport player? Tennis, squash, pickleball, racketball, ping pong, padel, etc.? You will want to check out this class, complete with bootcamp style workouts (i.e. high intensity interval training) that are designed to maximize your speed, strength, and power when on court! 

Fellow tennis player and local Kinesiologist Makena will be your instructor for this class. She will lead you through circuits consisting of different agility, speed, power, force absorption/expression, stabilization, and strength components. All workouts will be done on Tennis Court #3 at Global.

While this workout is perfect for someone playing a racket sport, the foundation of the class is one that supports all sports and some of the key skills you must have to be an athlete. So if you are someone who does not play a racket sport but wants to improve their athleticism, feel free to join too!

You can attend just 1 or you can attend all 9! To reserve your spot, please email or text Makena at reachingformoore@gmail.com or 250.826.2206. All you have to do is let her know which dates you can make and she will get you registered on Global’s end, plus keep you up to date with details regarding the class(es) you have signed up for.

Makena looks forward to seeing you all on court where we can keep your sport and athletic fitness up over the winter!
