Thank you, USTA Foundation!
Last year, many of our families were impacted by the Eaton Canyon fires, losing homes, belongings, and being displaced from their communities. On Saturday, March 29th, some of our players were treated to a special morning at the Yonex Tennis Pop-Up Store by the USTA Foundation. The players enjoyed a personal tour of the store, learned about the latest Yonex rackets, apparel, and shoes, and had the chance to demo different racquets. They also watched a live demonstration on how tennis racquets are strung while enjoying snacks and refreshments. To top it off, the USTA Foundation surprised each player with Yonex t-shirts and other fun gifts.
Thank you for making our players feel so special after all they have experienced through the Eaton Canyon fires. Your kindness and generosity truly made our day!
Family Tennis Play Days
Family Tennis Play Days
We hosted our Family Tennis Play Day on May 2nd, bringing our families and community together for a fun-filled morning on the courts! 🎾☀️
Play Days are a great opportunity to meet our coaches, play tennis with your kids and other families, or simply relax and enjoy the atmosphere as a spectator. With music, food, beverages, and plenty of tennis fun, it’s the perfect way to connect, build community, and make new friends.
Thank you to everyone who joined us on May 2nd — we had an amazing time!
Our next Play Day will take place in June (date TBD). Best of all, our Play Days are free and open to the public. We hope to see you there!
