Training and curriculum for PE teachers and youth providers. By offering tennis in the classroom and school, providers help create positive and supportive environments for ALL kids to participate in tennis.

Physical benefits include improved health and muscle development; agility and balance; brain functioning and focus; bone health and eyesight maintenance; as well as possibly increasing life expectancy.
