From the National Recreation & Park Association: A look at why tennis is important to your community and how you can acquire funding to build new or renovate your existing courts.

Building on the benefits of tennis and the sport's ability to change lives and build strong communities, we focus on the opportunities and challenges of generating public support for new and renovated tennis facilities, tennis programming in school PE classes, after-school tennis and education programs, and the health and growth of college tennis-both varsity and recreational.
