Meet Our Pros

 

        Grace Ellery, Club Pro

 

My name is Grace Ellery and I am thrilled to be back for another season at FFTC as the Club Pro. I just finished  my second  year in the Kinesiology program at Guelph-Humber University and I am so glad to be home for the summer. I am a sports enthusiast, growing up I played every sport that I could pack into my schedule (baseball, soccer, tennis, volleyball, hockey, rugby, basketball). I played Inferno Soccer on a first-place division team, I also played Lindsay Lynx hockey, winning provincial gold and bronze but realized that tennis is my ultimate love. I have been taking tennis lessons since I was 5 years old. I was in the high-performance program in Newmarket, Ontario under the coaching leadership of Brian Draxl and Shane Hickson. I am a certified instructor with Tennis Canada and am passionate about playing tennis, but I am most passionate about teaching tennis to members of my community. I believe that learning good technique, positioning and footwork establishes a solid foundation to play the game. I am extremely honoured to have the privilege of coaching the Fenelon Falls Secondary School tennis team and last year had two players qualify and compete at the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFFSA) Championships.

This summer I will be providing private, semi-private and group lessons.  I will be teaching various adult clinics including the Wednesday evening Beginner/Intermediate Clinic and the Sunday Morning Junior Clinic. See our Programs and Lessons page for booking the clinics (filter by Program - Adult Course-Grace Ellery or Junior Course-Grace Ellery).  I will also be running summer camps for kids aged 7-13 beginning July 7th from 1-3 pm, happening all summer long. The camps are based on the Tennis Canada Learn to Play Program and are a great way to introduce kids to the game of tennis.
