Families, young tennis fans enjoy free day ahead of National Bank Open

For young tennis fans, there’s nothing like family weekend ahead of the National Bank Open in Montreal.

Canada’s biggest tennis tournament is set to kick off at IGA Stadium in Montreal. But before play officially gets underway, fans took part in Sunday’s free family event.

Families were granted access to the site for a chance to meeting their favourite tennis stars, get autographs, and let them try their hand at tennis on mini courts.

Montrealers were able to dive into an array of exciting activities, from zootherapy sessions to a hands-on introduction to wheelchair tennis.

National Bank Open beings Monday and ends Aug. 12. The men’s event is taking place in Montreal this year while the women play in Toronto.
