The 2nd Annual LOVE-ALL: Justin Bourassa Memorial Tennis Tournament is set to take over the Sarnia Tennis Club this weekend, July 18–20, bringing together elite competition, community spirit, and a cause close to many hearts.

More than 60 players from across Canada and the United States will compete for over $6,000 in prize money and national ranking points, with draws spanning an OTA Sanctioned Men’s Open 350, club-level singles, and doubles matches. Play begins Friday at 5:00 p.m. with opening singles rounds, continuing Saturday at 9:00 a.m. with two rounds of singles, consolation play, and the start of doubles. Sunday features the tournament’s semifinals and finals alongside the final doubles rounds. A BBQ and silent auction kick off at 11:00 a.m.

All proceeds from the event support LOVE-ALL, a non-profit endowment fund launched in memory of Justin Bourassa, a cherished tennis coach and community leader who passed away in 2021. The fund helps grow youth tennis in Sarnia–Lambton by supporting young athletes who demonstrate dedication, inclusivity, and a love for the game—values that defined Justin’s life and work.

Spectators are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and enjoy the weekend matches and community activities. The Sarnia Tennis Club is located at 700 Christina Street, with entrance off Errol Road. More information about the LOVE-ALL fund can be found at www.love-all.ca, and updates will be shared on social media at @justinbourassamemorial
