Everyone Can Play (ECP) was launched in the spring of 2024 as a new barrier-free program to support programming for new Canadians and under-resourced families and youth. The exhibition match featured Vasek Pospisil, Milos Raonic, Rebecca Marino, and Tatjana Maria! The Gala delivered a one-of-a-kind evening for Calgary’s tennis and business community, bringing together supporters, donors, and tennis enthusiasts for an evening of world-class tennis and entertainment.

💰️ All proceeds from the Exhibition match and Gala went towards the ECP program

⭐️ 277 attendees took part in the Gala, while over 600 people attended the exhibition match

🎾 Gala raised a total of $200,000 in revenue and will support 60 families to play tennis in our community in 2025

It was an evening we will never forget‼️

5️⃣ Next up: Sabine Lisicki

Following a few gap years due to Covid, we were all ecstatic in 2022 to bring back the CNBC. We were even more excited to announce that 2022 would also be the first year the event would be a combined MEN & WOMENS event!

✨️ Former World No. 12 Sabine Lisicki of Germany, would be one of the first women to play at the Calgary National Bank Challenger.

Sabine has been a force to be reckoned with during her career as a
🎾 Holder of 4 WTA singles titles
🎾 Reached the Wimbledon Finals in 2013
🎾 Defeated several World #1 singles players in her career including: Serena Williams, Venus Williams, Maria Sharapova, Ana Ivanovic & Carline Wozniacki
🎾 Has the 3rd fastest female recorded serve on the WTA Tour at 131 mph (211kmph)

At the time, Sabine had recently underwent knee reconstruction surgery in 2020 and had just embarked on her journey back into professional tennis competition. We were thrilled her journey was bringing her to CALGARY!

In 2023 Sabine was victorious and took home the Champion Title 🏆️ what an honour it was to be a part of her journey. Thank you and we wish you all the best!

3️⃣ Next up: The CNBC Core Shopping Mall Activation

For 5 years the CNBC has held an 11-day tournament activation in the heart of downtown Calgary at the Core Shopping Centre Mall. The activation was held daily over the lunch hour to promote the event, sell/win tickets and served as a sponsor activation.

🎾 Each year we engaged an average of 20,000 Calgarians!

First and foremost, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you, regardless of age, who came to play tennis on our specially designed court. Your presence and passion for the sport were the driving force behind the excitement and energy that permeated the event. We couldn’t have asked for a more vibrant and dynamic audience!

None of this would have been possible without the support of our valued sponsors, who played a vital role in making this promotion and the upcoming tennis event a reality. We extend our deepest appreciation to our Calgary National Bank Mall Promotion sponsors; National Bank, Print Three, Drytac, Tourism Calgary, Osten and Victor Alberta Tennis Centre, Tennis Canada, ATP Challenger Tour and International Tennis Federation World Tennis Tour W60.
