2021 Year in Review Highlights
A LOOK AT 2021 AND BEYOND
For two years, players have been navigating tennis through a pandemic! The year 2021 continued to demonstrate that our players are more than capable of adapting to change! We started the year with about 4.9% more Midwest tennis players compared to 2020, and our section continues to grow. It's all thanks to countless organizers whose passions have fueled the growth of tennis at every level.
In this special look back at our favorite 2021 Midwest memories, let us be reminded of our sport's ability to spark positive change. Events such as Play Tennis Midwest where 2,188 new players were introduced to tennis on their local courts... Ingenious moments like Towpath Tennis Center's virtual tennis matches for children... And heartwarming stories shared by dozens of coaches, mentors, players and volunteers who make tennis a more inclusive sport — a game that's kind and welcoming to everyone.
Thank you for your continued support of our mission! We look forward to more growth and success in 2022.
