The Avon Futures of Calgary was a CTA/WTA affiliated indoor carpet court tennis tournament founded in 1980. It was played at the Glenmore Racquet Club,[1] in Calgary, Canada for one edition when it was discontinued.
History
The tournament was part of the Avon Futures Circuit, which served as a developmental "feeder" tour for the main Avon Championships Circuit. It provided up-and-coming players with the opportunity to earn points and qualify for the top-tier events.
It was staged for only one edition in 1980, and was going to continue but was discontinued due to low attendence turnout.[2]
