Winnipeg, MB (TM) – The
Erica Gilbert Off-Court Official Award, instituted
by Tennis Canada in 2005, recognizes the outstanding
performance of an off-court official (referee, chief
of officials, trainer-evaluator). The 2008 recipient
is David Kives of Winnipeg, in recognition of his high
level of performance and dedication as referee in numerous
tournaments during the past year.
David’s outstanding work
as a referee comes in addition to his consistently high
level of performance as a line umpire at the Rogers
Cup in Montreal and Toronto, and several Davis Cup ties
across the country.
