2026 USTA Missouri Valley National Tennis Month Events
Proclamations
Get ready to serve up some fun because May is National Tennis Month! Whether you are new to the game, an experienced player or you're coming back after some time away, get moving and join in the celebration of the world's healthiest sport.
National Tennis Month is an opportunity for everyone to get involved and spread their love of tennis. Designating a month of promotion for tennis gives coaches, facilities, parks & recs, Community Tennis Associations and NJTLs a platform to drive awareness and help bring new players into local programs, inspire lapsed players to pick the sport back up and energize existing players to compete more. As your partner in play, USTA Missouri Valley is providing resources, ideas and support.
