– Tennis Manitoba is using the Winnipeg Winter Club
Junior Open as a test of the new Baseline System, a
real-time, interactive web-based system to manage rankings,
players and tournament draws.
Tennis Canada, the governing body of tennis in Canada,
has signed a letter of agreement to use the Baseline
application to manage the operations of all of the provinces
in Canada. Tennis Canada will use Baseline’s ranking
system to provide Canadian tennis players with their
first ever head-to-head national ranking starting in
2006.

– Gifts for the children, plenty of smiling faces and
a great lunch at Arby’s. That was the order of the day
at the wind-up of the Arby’s Tennis Program, organized
by Bill Serbin. After ten weeks of tennis lessons and
hours of fun, the youngsters from the Rossbrook House
enjoyed a delicious meal courtesy of Grant Tymchuk and
his staff at the Arby’s on Regent. Grant topped it off
with a gift for each child and tickets to the New Year’s
Eve Moose Game at the MTS Center.
Tennis Manitoba would like to thank Leonard Asper for
his generous support of this program and providing the
children with a great opportunity to be exposed to tennis.
The program was very successful and thoroughly enjoyed
by all of the participants. Everyone is looking forward
to next year.
