As someone who has visited this incredible community before, I am very

pleased and excited to join you for the 2019 summer as the Ojibway

new and exciting, and most

importantly, to help you achieve

everything you expect, and more, from your tennis experience at the

Ojibway Club. As a Tennis Canada Coach 3 and Club Pro 3 with over 15
