We need your help!

• On-Court Volunteers: Bring your tennis skills and passion to support your community!
  • Our instruction and play programs are volunteer-driven.  Typically, our programs are led by a teaching pro or experienced volunteer assisted by a group of volunteers to teach our clinics
    • We offer training using the latest progression-based techniques for teaching youth, adults, and special needs players
  • We need volunteer and “parenteer” coaches, organizers, and team managers for instructional sessions and to organize informal team play
  • Teaching tennis as a volunteer is FUN and rewarding, and no experience or minimum rating is necessary
  • Participation as a coach is flexible — work as much as you can!
• Off-Court Volunteers: Bring your life skills and passion to support your community!
  • We’re raising funds, applying for grants, and bringing USTA resources to local facilities, to players in need, and to build communities around tennis
  • We’re advocating and planning for new and expanded facilities
