PRC Brampton Rosalea Unveils Initiatives for Brampton’s Youth and Community

On December 20, 2024,  Premier Racquet Clubs (PRC) Brampton Rosalea is proud to announce a series of transformative initiatives designed to enhance sports development, create local opportunities, and support Brampton’s vibrant community. These efforts underscore PRC’s commitment to building a world-class tennis facility that serves the city’s youth and residents.

“I’m very excited about the new programming announced in collaboration with community organizations like ResQ Youth, our local schools, and also accessibility programs. Our partnership with PRC at Rosalea enhances our ability to provide expert programming, foster inclusivity in the sport, create jobs, and save on operating costs. Youth who love tennis don’t need to go to other cities to play in the winter. The nationally recognized tournaments at PRC Brampton Rosalea, beginning with its first of approximately 30 events, will attract players from across Canada, strengthen our local economy, and further strengthen Brampton’s reputation as a hub for world-class sports and recreation.”

– Rowena Santos, Regional Councillor Wards 1 & 5, Chair, Community Services
