Staff, dressed as M&M's were treated to a fun Halloween party with our junior players. Bingo, costume contests, a murder mystery, eating delicious pizza, there were so many activities to take part in. Thank you to everyone who pulled together to organize this party, create crafts for the kids, and ensuring the juniors had a blast in this holiday celebration. #aforza #halloween #calgary #party #yyc

Two of our #academy alumni and one of our coaching staff are in #yeg trying their luck in the Professional #tennis Event this weekend. Alumni Liam Spiers and coach Andre Szilvassy won both of their matches to qualify for the main draw. You can live stream those matches here: https://lnkd.in/erShVE4 Academy #alumni Alex Vukovic, who spent his entire junior career training at aforza and has been playing for the U of C Dino's ever since, won his first qualifying match yesterday but fell just short in the final round of qualifying 6-3, 7-6 to Jim Hendrix from the Netherlands. Aforza co-owner Jeff Spiers had the following words to say about Alex: It was always a pleasure working with Alex, he was a great leader in our junior program and it is great to see him thrive with the U of C Dino's where he continues to excel on and off the court.

Have you had a chance to meet the two newest additions to our team? Meet Shehleen! She is a great addition to our front desk team bringing years of experience working as an receptionist. Looking forward to getting to know the regular members at the club, she is also studying at MRU. Welcome Shehleen! Meet Bryce! A former NCAA Division 1 tennis player with years of coaching experience joins the team. Bryce was able to use tennis to move from Thunder Bay Ontario to play on bigger stages in Toronto. Now he is in Calgary, bringing all he's got to train Aforzians! #aforza #coach #frontdesk #calgary

We would like to congratulate Coach Hichem Yacoubi on completing his ITF Level 3 certification! This certification demonstrates Hichem’s ability to mentor tennis players at an advanced and competitive level. Hichem has also received the role of Aforza’s Academy Director. Keep up the good work! Aforza is committed to continuing our staff’s professional development. This summer, we funded the training, flight test and exams of Nigel Mawji’s RPAS (Remotely Piloted Aircraft System) Advanced Operations Certification. In June, five of our coaches were supported in receiving their Padel Coach Plus certification during their time in Montreal. We believe in building up our staff and providing the necessary tools to see them grow to their full potential. #aforza #staffdevelopment #careers #tennis #padel
