Nominations Open for Adaptive Award
Do you know an adaptive program that deserves an award? The USTA National Adaptive Committee would like to hear about it.
The program must have been active for a minimum of three consecutive years and has demonstrated continued excellence, dedication and tennis-related service for those with physical and/or intellectual disabilities in order to qualify for the award.
Most importantly, it must be included on the USTA’s Registered Programs List. If it is not yet registered, there is a link to do so on the nomination form.
