In terms of watching pro league tennis in Toronto this stadium is always the default venue where…read moregames are played at, and it always switches every year between the men and women. For example, this year (2017), the venue hosted the WTA tour while Montreal hosted the ATP. Next year it will switch around. This was my second time visiting the stadium for the WTA, and just like the first time I enjoyed my visit here and the matches I got to see in the semi-finals for the women. In terms of the stadium it's a nice venue overall. Clean and well-kept, so no complaints there, however, if there is one area I think could be improved upon greatly it would be the concession prices. There just way to high in my opinion and I will gladly always wait to eat outside the stadium versus inside. I'm sure that won't change anytime soon, but it's worth noting nonetheless.

Growing up, I was never one for tennis. I remember getting a racket one year as a present and I…read morethink my lack of coordination or patience to learn prevented me from ever picking up the sport. As I got older, I realized I liked watching it a lot more than I ever did playing it, but as the years went on I even learned to hit and serve. I like the sport a lot now and love to go watch it on a warm, sunny day. One of the best facilities to watch a pro match is at the Rexall Tennis Centre up at York University. Besides getting scorched by the sun in the nosebleeds that have no shade coverage whatsoever, the stands are vast and can seat thousands of fans. I was lucky one summer to score some box seats and the comfort and service was spectacular! Like any arena/stadium-like event venue, there are dozens of concession stands and beer gardens and souvenir shops to satisfy any sweet touch or beer belly in the place. The Rogers Cup is hosted there every summer and the top ranked players in the world come to wow the crowds. A very great aspect of the Rogers Cup at the Rexall Centre are the semi-private courts that allow fans to get up close and personal to their favourite players and watch them practice. There were autograph sessions and swag give-a-ways and tennis fans and tag-a-longs alike seemed to have a great time! If you like playing or watching tennis, you should check out the Rexall Centre for the Rogers Cup or any other tournament or event. They also have concerts and business shows and events there from time to time. Parking is located directly across the tennis centre and the lot is HUGE, so no worries on not finding a spot. The only thing I can say against the Rexall Centre is the security. Yes, they were just doing their job but I didn't appreciate getting accosted for my half empty juice bottle. *sniff, sniff, ok, carry on ma'am. THAT was not necessary!

It's the only restaurant at this sports complex that operates separately from the concessions stands at the complex itself. This sports centre is Canada's largest municipally owned and operated recreation facility. It's huge, as it houses six arenas. Many hockey teams are here to practise and play, including the Whitby Wildcats. It also has two indoor pools. BarDown Gastropub is great if you want to grab a bite to eat before or after a game. Our group wasn't here for sports, so it works for lunch and dinner. The food is excellent. It also houses the largest screen in Whitby to see the latest sports games. Since the City of Whitby owns this property, it has a contract with Pepsi. You get Pepsi products at concession stands, vending machines, and BarDown Gastropub. There are banquet and meeting rooms that you can rent. It also has a pro shop to get your skates sharpened and athletic training facilities. When it's warmer outside, this place has six tennis courts, five baseball diamonds, and a soccer field open. It's huge here. There is lots of parking. It's free. I was here with friends on a Sunday afternoon. This sports complex is open every day from 8:30 am till roughly 8:30 pm. If you have a water bottle, you can fill it up at the water bottle fill-up station. It was nice checking this place out briefly. It's cool and a valuable asset to Whitby and beyond. (79)
