The Rossland Tennis Society is a community-run tennis club that welcomes all levels of player and aims to provide everyone with opportunities to improve their play.
The three courts, just blocks from the downtown core, have been described as, “quite possibly the most scenic tennis courts in British Columbia.” Overlooking Happy Valley to the east, the courts have incredible views looking out over the Columbia Valley and surrounding mountains, forests and farmland. An additional court is located at Red Mountain.
The main courts were originally built in the late 1800’s, providing summer recreation for the booming gold mine town. They were resurfaced in 2008 and volunteers maintain the courts each year. A long-term plan to upgrade the facility and provide for easy maintenance is in the works.
