About Us

Aurum Tennis is a Canadian-based activewear company specializing in tennis apparel.

The idea began when co-founders Katherine and Derek were travelling through South America playing in tennis tournaments. One of the events they played had a small clothing company as it's sponsor and thought "what could be more fun than travelling the world, working at tennis events?" On that day Aurum Tennis was born. Katherine and Derek set out to create a brand of tennis clothing which maintained the long-standing tradition of tennis-wear, but with a modern take.

Once Katherine and Derek got started, they began analyzing the market and noticed a few trends. Firstly, tennis was one of the fastest growing sports in the world, ever since the COVID-pandemic. Secondly, because of this boom in popularity, tennis was no longer restricted to exclusive country clubs, and now the parks and community clubs were filled with thousands of eager players. Tennis was no longer a country club sport, but a sport for every athlete.
