The Big Serve is the USTA's advocacy initiative. The effort is aimed at connecting the passion of USTA members and the larger tennis community with the public policy needs of the communities in which they live. We know that tennis is a sport that can change lives and improve communities, and this website is just one of the tools the USTA has developed to help make that happen across the country.

Get the instruction and training you need by exploring our educational materials under "Advocacy Handbook and Interactive Advocacy 101".

Explore "Take Action in your community" to research and contact your federal and state legislators.
