Canada Stadium, seating 4,500 spectators, opened in 1977[citation needed] on land in Ramat Hasharon that had been an old strawberry patch,[1] which was given to the Israel Tennis Centers (ITC) by the government.

It was part of an ITC project that included the opening of 13 other tennis centres in the country.

The stadium is the "main court" of the tennis centre at Ramat Hasharon, which is the biggest in the country.

A large number of up-and-coming Israeli tennis professionals regularly train at the centre, as well as some top-quality players.

In Ramat Hasharon, Israel's first tennis stadium was built with money raised by Canadians Joe Frieberg, Ralph Albert, Harold Green and others, and named Canada Stadium in their honour.
