USTA Mid-Atlantic and Citi Open are partnering to host Kids’ Day powered by Net Generation on Sunday, July 28 at Rock Creek Park Tennis Center in Washington D.C. from 9:30-11:30 am. Net Generation, official youth tennis of the USTA, gives kids the skills to be great on and off the court and makes it easier than ever for kids to get into tennis.

 

At Kids’ Day, participants will play tennis games and skill challenges on stadium court at the Citi Open, just like the pros - and all equipment will be provided. Other off-court activities and entertainment will also be available to enjoy. All ages, skill levels, and abilities are welcomed and encouraged to join us for tennis at Citi Open. Pre-Register today to reserve your spot(s) for family fun. 

 

Not only will there be plenty of opportunities to have fun with tennis, 15-year-old Cori (Coco) Gauff will be joining us this year for Net Generation Kids’ Day too.
