October Spotlight of the Month - Adaptive Player

Casey McKenzie | October 20, 2022


Each month, USTA Oklahoma will highlight a player, a volunteer and/or coach, and a NJTL (National Junior Tennis & Learning) or Adaptive Tennis Player. After selecting the 3 winners, we will sit down for Q & A with the spotlight of the month. 

 

  • Athlete-- Any player that has good sportsmanship & dedication to the sport, whether they are just starting out in a Team Challenge or they are a National ranked player we would love to hear who you would recommend from your team or facility 
  • Volunteer/Coach--A person that has gone above and beyond for your facility or program.  
  • NJTL/Adaptive Player--A player that has demonstrated hard work and dedication they have put forth in their program.
