Tennis Canada — Let's Make Tennis Matter

Tennis Canada launch a national public service ad campaign promoting tennis participation for children across the country and the “Let’s Make Tennis Matter for Kids” fundraising initiative. The campaign includes three ads that highlight the fact that maybe, just maybe not every kid in Canada wants to play hockey and to give tennis a shot. Above, "Goaltending" and below "Penalty Box".

“We know that hockey in Canada is like a religion,” said Michael S. Downey, president and CEO, Tennis Canada. “But the truth of the matter is that not all kids are interested in lacing up their skates and hitting the ice for the first time. We want to ensure our sport is an option for those kids and their parents by increasing awareness and accessibility to Kids Tennis. This campaign and the resulting money raised will help us in achieving our mission of growing the sport of tennis across Canada.”

The campaign is the work of Toronto based Bensimon Byrne, Canada's largest independent agency. That sounds so good considering the recent mega Publicis/Omnicom merger.
