The Kickoff of the Girls' 2024 Tennis Season is complete.  We hosted 20 coaches from 14 schools for a clinic at Stockdale Country Club on August 19.  Players' Drills at BRC on August 24 were attended by a record 388 girls for two hours of instruction, lunch (courtesy of Little Caesars), and a "Shopping Spree" that delivered approximately 1500 articles of clothing.  The Equipment Distribution on August 29 fulfilled requests from 22 schools for gear with a retail value of nearly $100,000.  That gear included 150 racquets, 305 pairs of shoes, 610 pairs of socks, over 1000 sports bras, 381 pairs of compression shorts, 252 visors, 129 tennis backpacks, and approximately 3000 practice balls.

 

This is made possible through the generosity of members of our community, partnerships with key suppliers, support of the high school coaches, and the hard work of a great many people.  That last group is listed below, and we sincerely apologize if we have failed to include anyone.
