Suggestions: tournament league more than 1 game in

Wychwood has given us the gift of learning to play
a wonderful game that we, otherwise, would not have had the opportunity to
learn in other communities. It is truly special. The coaches are amazing
and fun, with both children and adults. Their courses and instruction are
always accompanied by a smile, enthusiasm, a love of the game, and a desire
to share their knowledge of it with anyone wanting to improve! A big thank
you to everyone who makes Wychwood possible, year after year. We cannot imagine

Hello,
I am
writing to speak of the excellent work done by the team of volunteers at
the Wychwood Tennis Club. This year, my spouse and I joined the club for
the first time and were very surprised by the kindness of all of the
volunteers and the efforts displayed in order to ensure that all of the
events that took place during the season (for example, tournaments,
leagues, méli-mélo) were a tremendous success. Without the involvement of
the volunteers, we would not have benefited from events that were so well
organized.
My

and my younger son, Oliver, who is now 6, has been coming for the past 2
years. Both love their classes. The instructors are always very
professional and fun at the same time. They provide a very positive role
model for my boys. The Club is an invaluable asset to the community of
Aylmer and one that we hope will continue indefinitely into the future.
Children of all ages have benefited and continue to benefit from this
professional and warm place to come together and learn a sport in a
positive and enriching environment.

To the
Volunteers of the Wychwood Tennis Club,
You are
a great team,
Last spring, I was surfing the Web to find a sport
for my children and I was lucky to find the Wychwood Tennis Club’s website.
My husband and I registered our three children: Lary, Dallaire and Flaubert
to tennis classes and to the junior league. On the courts, we have met
devoted and engaged volunteers. Jonathan and Vincent were always ready to
greet the youth with a smile. We have appreciated Jonathan and Vincent’s
commitment towards the children. They took care of the children and made
sure that arrangements had been made for them to go back home. Our three
children have really enjoyed their tennis experience because they have met
fascinating and reliable volunteers. They had fun and they have decided to
continue to play tennis. It is a sense of achievement for the whole family.
Thank you very much to the Wychwood team.
Hoping to see you again next year, we wish you a
nice holiday.

on Thursday nights and they really enjoyed their experience. The coaches
were very patient and competent. They had a good sense of humour and knew
how to encourage the efforts made by the young players.
I play
in the morning league (3 times) and Alexis and Sandra are very nice and I
really appreciate the fact that they join us when necessary. They adapt
their level to ours when they play with us. We know that they are much
better players than all of us and they are very modest and respectful. They
are always in a good mood and are helpful.
Thank you France and the whole team of

Keep up

I would
like to thank Tennis Wychwood for my son’s spring and summer sessions. I am
amazed at how much progress he made in a few short months -- he’s gone from
simply trying to get the ball over the net to working on his top spin! Full
credit goes to the fantastic coaching staff. Their ability to keep a group
of young active kids organized and focussed on learning while still having
fun is impressive. All of my kids have played many sports -- recreational
and competitive -- so I have seen a lot of different coaching styles with
varying outcomes. The Wychwood group is a model coaching team. Energetic,
encouraging, professional and unbelievably patient with kids of all
abilities and personality types. I cannot say enough good things about our
experience with Tennis Wychwood. Thank you very much to all of the coaches!
A special thank you to France too. I appreciate her warmth, dedication, and
excellent administration of the programs.

me to enroll my son each season. He has improved and enjoys playing this
wonderful game that keeps him active. The various members who keep coming
back make the leagues both competitive and social opportunities for me. Everyone is friendly and knows each other.

As a
father of two young boys, 11 and 7 years old, very energetic and with
concentration problems, I would like to thank the Wychwood Tennis Club for
their exceptional job last summer, as well as for the quality and the range
of activities that it offers to Aylmer’s youth. As an educator, I can only
congratulate the Wychwood Tennis Club and its team of young, dynamic and
kind instructors for the quality of the programs offered that ranges from
tennis courses at various levels, the junior ladder league, as well as the
Friday night activities for the 5 to 15 years old. With this variety of
offering, the Club has achieved a dynamic and real community spirit.
For one
thing, the lessons are extremely well structured, with a good mixture of
fun and technique so that it can reach and interest youth of all levels of
play. As for the ladder league, it gives young players a chance to be
initiated gradually to the tennis rules, while improving their
concentration and their willingness to play. The league therefore
represents a chance to play with friends more than a willingness to
perform. As a result, it is common to see young players seeking occasions
to play for fun with others on the practice field close to the playground,
inventing new rules or reproducing the games they played during their
lessons. Also, what can be said of the Friday night activity that was
viewed as a fun place to be for 45 young enthusiastic, good and not so
good, young and not so young players, in a relaxed and open environment,
full of joy and laughter, in short an activity that my kids really wanted
to attend.
Finally,
I would not want to miss this opportunity to especially and significantly
draw attention to the exceptional contribution of these young instructors
who take care of our youth. These young responsible men are happy,
responsible, fascinating and also very dedicated young men. I cannot find
enough words to explain the important role that they play in my children’s
life. Real models, they are authentic as well as wonderful educators that
have nothing to envy to our professionals in the education world.
By
reading this, you will have understood that the Wychwood Tennis Club is a
real gem for our Aylmer youth, and I would even say, for the entire
community. It is a precise example of what constitutes the wealth of a
community as it helps develop and bridge solid and durable relations
amongst the members of the community and our youth while, over and above
the increasing pleasure of playing tennis, helps to teach kids how to have
fun together and to share with new friends, young and not so young.
In one
word, thank you to the Wychwood Tennis Club and its instructors for this
wonderful summer spent in your company. I will be back
next year!

To the
gang at Wychwood,
I want to let you know that I admire you for the energy, patience and
enthusiasm that you demonstrate every day. You are exceptional persons; you
have shown that you are intelligent, both emotionally and mentally, and
that you are accomplished tennis instructors! For me, you are the tennis
club! You were meant to be coaches; you always emphasize the positive
aspects of the youths’ skills and the youths adore you. I also wish to draw
attention to your commitment to the club, which is an attitude that seems outdated
but that gives meaning to life. You have proven that it’s always better to
have fun while learning! I am very happy that my son can grow personally
with you through the summer by being in the “SWAT”. He has gained a lot of
confidence by being around you. He has had a dream summer because of you!
In our very busy life, we don’t take the time often enough to thank and to
show our recognition. It is better to ask and make things happen like you
did. So, hats off to the whole team, and special thanks to Vincent,
Jonathan, Jérémi and Mathieu, with whom I have spent more time this summer.
You are good models for our youth and are nice people. And, of course thank
you France for overseeing everything and for putting together such a great

In my
opinion, the Wychwood Tennis Club is a lot more than a tennis club. I have
played on all of the City of Gatineau’s courts and even in Ottawa, but nothing
equals Wychwood’s atmosphere and ambiance, which is created mostly by the
volunteers, the people that we meet over there, the activities organized by
the Club, the instructors and the attendants. For me, a tennis enthusiast,
this greatly enhances the quality of life in the Aylmer sector.
